The 'Logs' tab shows all events that occurred on a specific device. This contrasts to ‘Dashboard’ > ‘Audit Logs’, which shows events on all devices.

  • Login to ITarian
     
  • Click 'Applications' > 'Endpoint Manager'
     
  • Click 'Devices' > 'Device List'
  • Click the 'Device Management' tab
     
  • Click the name of a Windows device
     
  • Click the 'Logs' tab



There are eight types of a log, each on a different tab. Each row in these tabs is a specific event.

General Notes

  • The first column shows the template that caused the log to be generated. This could be a named monitor, procedure, or discovery task.
     
    • You can manage these templates in ‘Configuration Templates’ > ‘Alerts’ / ‘Procedures’ / ‘Monitors’
       
    • The 'Alert Logs' tab has a slightly different layout. The template is shown in the ‘Trigger Name’ column
       
  • The last column, ‘Details’, shows the contents of the log. Click this to view all activities in the event.
     
    • Again, this is slightly different in the ‘Alert Logs’ tab. ‘Details’ is replaced with ‘Hit Count’.

Click on the following for details about each type of log:

Alert Logs - An alert is a notification which informs admins if a procedure fails, or when certain conditions are met in a monitor.


 

For example, 'Generate an alert if CPU usage exceeds 90%', or 'Alert me when all Windows patches have been installed'.

Alert Name - The alert template used in the event.

  • An alert template is just a collection of settings that determine alert recipients, information included, priority, etc. The alert template does not specify the conditions under which the alert was generated.
     
  • The 'Trigger Name' is the procedure/monitor that actually caused the event. You also enable or disable the alert itself from the procedure/monitor edit screen.
     
  • You apply the alert template to a procedure/monitor to define the scope of the alert.
     
  • In the standard workflow, all procedures and monitors have the 'Default Alert' template applied to them. 
     
  • You can also create your own alert templates. Click here for help to manage alert templates.

Trigger Name - The monitor or procedure that caused the alert.

  • Procedures – An alert is created if a procedure fails. Click here for help on procedures.
     
  • Monitors – An alert is created when one or more of the monitor's conditions are met. Click here for help on monitors.

Trigger Type – Can be 'Monitor' or 'Procedure' as explained above.

Hit Count (24 H Period) - The number of times this condition was triggered in the past 24 hours.
 

Monitoring Logs - Shows events that met the conditions of a monitor.

  • A monitor is a routine which keeps track of specific items on an endpoint. For example, you may set a monitor to track disk usage and alert you if it goes above a certain %.
     
  • You can also configure a monitor to run a procedure, or create a service desk ticket if its conditions are met.
     
  • You first create a monitor then you add it to the 'Monitoring' section of a profile.



 

  • Monitor name - The monitor that was triggered to create the log.
     
    • Click the name to view and manage the settings of the monitor.
       
  • Status - Whether or not the monitor is currently active on the device.
     
  • Hit count - The number of times the monitored condition was breached during the last 24 hours.
     
  • Last hit time - Date and time the monitored rule was last broken.
     
  • Last update time - Date and time when the information was last refreshed.
     
  • Details - Click the 'Details' link to see all activities in the event.





Details are shown in three tabs:
 

  • Logs - Date and time the event occurred. It also shows the monitoring rule that detected the event.
     
  • Tickets - Shows any service desk tickets created by the events.
     
  • Statuses - Shows the current status of all conditions monitored on the device.
     

Script Logs - Shows script procedures that were manually run on Windows devices, and scripts that were auto-run via a profile. 

  • EM ships with a number of pre-defined script procedures for various tasks. For example, 'Get Software Inventory', 'Enable Windows Firewall', 'Check Disk Errors'. You can also compose your own Python scripts in the built-in editor.
     
  • Script procedures can be added to a profile and run at a scheduled time. You can also manually run them on target devices at any time
    .
