Platform Event Filters
A platform event filter (PEF) can trigger an action and generate an alert when a critical hardware-related event
occurs. For each PEF, you can choose the action to be taken (or take no action) when a platform event occurs.
You can also choose to generate and send an alert when a platform event occurs. Alerts are sent as an SNMP
trap, so you must configure an SNMP trap destination before the alerts can be sent.
You can globally enable or disable the generation of platform event alerts. When disabled, alerts are not sent
even if PEFs are configured to send them.
