Organize the Activity Log

Arcserve Backup provides you with the capability to customize the type of information and how the information displays in the Activity log.

Using the Organize dialog you can:

• Filter by message type--Specify the types of messages that you want to view in the Activity log. You can view informational messages, error messages, warnings messages, or any combination thereof.
• Filter by message date--Specify a date or range of dates of messages that you want to view in the Activity log. You can show all messages, filter messages such that only messages before or after a specified date display, or display a specific range of dates.
• Group by message type--Specify how you want to group the activity log messages. You can group by message job, type, or category (Device Management only). When you specify the Group by Jobs option, the Activity log groups the parent job together with all of its child jobs. For each parent job and its corresponding child jobs, the Activity log presents you with a description for the job. The Group by Type option lets you group error messages, warning messages, and information messages. When you specify the Group by Category (Device Management only) option, the Activity log presents an individual group containing Device Management messages.
• Sort logs using the post date--Specify the date order in which you want the messages to display. You can specify the latest or oldest messages first.

To organize the Activity Log:

1. Open the Job Status Manager and select the Activity Log tab.
2. Right-click any location on the Activity Log and select Organize from the pop-up menu.

   The Organize dialog opens.

3. Specify the desired options and click OK.
