Information in the Events widget

The Events widget in the Dashboard section displays general information about the events and incidents that have the most recent values for the date and time of last occurrence.

The widget displays the following elements:

• Histogram of events and incidents for the selected period. This data is displayed in the upper part of the widget. The histogram shows the distribution of events and incidents based on their severity levels.
• List containing information about registered events and incidents sorted by date and time of last occurrence. This data is displayed in the middle part of the widget.

Statistics of events and incidents

On the histogram showing the distribution of events and incidents, the columns correspond to the total number of events for each time interval. Within columns, the severities of events and incidents are distinguished by color. The following colors correspond to severity levels:

• Blue. This color is used for events and incidents with the Low severity level.
• Yellow. This color is used for events and incidents with the Medium severity level.
• Red. This color is used for events and incidents with the High severity level.

To display information about a column of the histogram, move the mouse cursor over it. A pop-up window shows the date and time of the interval as well as the number of events and incidents by severity level.

The duration of time intervals depends on the selected display period. You can select the relevant period for generating a histogram using the following buttons:

• 1h—period of one hour, divided into intervals of one minute.
• 12h—period of 12 hours, divided into one-hour intervals.
• 24h—period of 24 hours, divided into one-hour intervals.
• 7d—period of seven days, divided into intervals of one day.

List of events and incidents

The list of events and incidents in the Events widget is updated in online mode. Events and incidents with the most recent values for the date and time of last occurrence are placed at the beginning of the list.

The number of displayed elements in the list of events and incidents is limited by the size of the widget.

The following information is provided for each event or incident in the list:

• Title of the event or incident.
• Date and time of last occurrence.
• Icon designating the severity level of an event or incident:
  •  – Low severity.
  •  – Medium severity.
  •  – High severity.

Incidents in the list are marked with the icon.
