Tips and Features for Administrators
Customizing the PAM Event Messaging System
During operation, all Central Subsystem activity messages are automatically logged in
predefined System Histories that can be viewed and archived by members of the Customer
Administrator group. In addition, PAM software reports and logs environmental, command,
and hardware errors.
A comprehensive set of Event Message subscriptions allows connected and non-connected
users to be notified of system status and activity.
The PAM event messaging system is based on a subscription mechanism allowing the
Customer Administrator to send precisely filtered event messages to targeted individuals
and/or groups via four channels (WEB Interface, E-mail, User History, SNMP) as shown in
Figure 172.

Note:
PAM software is delivered with a set of predefined subscriptions that have been designed to
suit the needs of most Administrators and Operators. If required, you can use PAM
Configuration tools to set up customized subscriptions.
From the PAM tree, expand the Configuration Tasks and Events nodes to display event
configuration options.
