System alerts

System alerts are system events that have passed a pre-defined threshold and that HPE Service Manager writes to the server log (default: sm.log). System alerts contain information about the health and performance of the Service Manager installation. System administrators can define the conditions that trigger system alerts from the Service Manager initialization file.

The server log lists all the system events that have passed a pre-defined threshold. System administrators can review the server log to determine the health and performance of their Service Manager installation. By default, the server log is located in the <Service Manager>\Server\logs folder. System administrators can change what information Service Manager writes to the server log as well as the location of the log from the Service Manager initialization file.

System alert message format

Service Manager writes system alerts to the server log using the following format:

[Process ID] [Date and time] [Alert category]-[Alert type]-[Alert item], [Alert text]
