What the Event Information section displays

Fields that are not applicable to the event type are hidden. You can view the following event details:

Event Trigger Time

The time at which the event was generated.

State

The event state: New, Acknowledged, Resolved, or Obsolete.

Obsoleted Cause

The actions that caused the event to be obsoleted, for example, the issue was fixed.

Event Duration

For active (new and acknowledged) events, this is the time between detection and the time when the event was last analyzed. For obsolete events, this is the time between detection and when the event was resolved.

This field is displayed for all performance events, and for other event types only after they have been resolved or obsoleted.

Last Seen

The date and time at which the event was last seen as active.

For performance events this value may be more recent than the Event Trigger Time as this field is updated after each new collection of performance data as long as the event is active. For other types of events, when in the New or Acknowledged state, this content is not updated and the field is therefore hidden.

The event impact level: Incident, Risk, Event, or Upgrade.

The event impact area: Availability, Capacity, Performance, Protection, Configuration, or Security.
