About severity levels and filters
Access Appliance monitors events of different severity levels. Set the severity to a particular level to specify the severity level to include in notifications. Notifications are sent for events having the same or higher severity.
Table: Severity levels describes the valid Access Appliance severity levels in descending order of severity.

Access Appliance also classifies event notifications by type. Set the event filter to specify which type of events to include in notifications. Notifications are sent only for events matching the given filter.
The filter is set to one of the following options:
Admin
Backup
CIFS
Cluster
Database
FTP
Network
NFS
OpenStack
Replication

SmartIO

Upgrade
All - resets the filter to show all events.
For example, if the filter is set to network, a network event triggers a notification. A storage-related event would not trigger a notification.
