The Administrator's Log

About this task

The system warns you of potential administrative problems by displaying an administrative alert message (Alarms: A) on the Administration status line when it logs an administration event. Check the status line at the top of the Command Prompt screen at least once a day. If you observe such a message, access the Administrator's Log to view current error messages and a description for each problem.

The Administrator's Log identifies system events. These events include problems that you need to correct. Some events, such as full subscriber mailboxes and undeliverable messages, directly affect message processing.
