Setting Platform Event Filter Alerts
You can use the Server Administrator Instrumentation Service to configure
the most relevant BMC features, such as Platform Event Filter (PEF)
parameters and alert destinations. To do this:
1
Click the System object.
2 Click the Alert Management tab.
3 Click Platform Events .
The
Platform Events window allows you to take individual action on
specific platform events. You can select those events for which you want to
take shutdown actions and generate alerts for selected actions. You can
also send alerts to specific IP address destinations of your choice.
NOTE: You must be logged in with Administrator privileges to configure the
BMC Platform Event Filter Alerts.
NOTE: The Enable Platform Event Filters Alerts setting disables or enables
platform event filter alert generation. It is independent of the individual
platform event alert settings.
