Displaying system alerts

You can use the ap commands to monitor alerts for Cloud Pak for Data System.

Procedure

Use one of the following approaches:

ap issues displays all open issues.
ap events or ap issues -e displays all events.
ap issues -c displays all closed issues.
ap issues <ID> displays details for the issue or event with a given ID

Note that you can set the time frame for which to display the alerts by using the following parameters with ap issues and ap events:

--from <time>
--to <time>

where the <time> value can be provided in three forms:

--from YYYY-MM-DD-hh:mm
--to YYYY-MM-DD-hh:mm

where YYYY-MM-DD-hh:mm is date and time.

```
--from YYYY-MM-DD
--to YYYY-MM-DD
```
where YYYY-MM-DD is a date. In this case, the start time is assumed to be 00:00:00 and the end time is 23:59:59.
```
--from -N
--to -N
```
where N is a number of days before the current date, so, for example, --from -32 sets the start date to 32 days before the current date. The starts time is assumed to be 00:00:00 and the end time is 23:59:59.

Example output:

ap issues 1001
