# Viewing Event Logs

The LSI Storage Authority software monitors the activity and performance of the server and all of the controllers cards attached to it. Perform the following steps to view the event logs.

1. Select Actions > View Event Log in the Server dashboard or the Controller dashboard.
   The View Event Log window appears that displays a list of events. Each entry has an event ID, a severity level that indicates the severity of the event, a date and time entry, and a brief description of the event. The event logs are sorted by date and time in chronological order.
2. (Optional) Click Load More to view more events in the same page.

Note: The View Event Log is empty when there are only process related events.
