# Health Log Analytics severity mapping

Health Log Analytics \(HLA\) uses common severity values to identify severity labels in the Source Type Structure.

The **Log severity mapping** table shows how HLA identifies severity words from raw logs \(left column\) and maps them to its own severity values \(middle column\). These values are then presented in Event Management alerts \(right column\).

|Raw log severity|HLA log severity|Event Management alert severity|

|TRACE|TRACE|Keywords-based|
|VERBOSE|TRACE|Keywords-based|
|FINE|TRACE|Keywords-based|
|FINER|TRACE|Keywords-based|

|EMER|EMERGENCY|CRITICAL|

**Note:** If your raw log contains numerical severities or unrecognized words, map these values to the HLA Log Severity column by creating a conditional statement using the JS function in the Source Type Structure.
