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 PEF Alerts.
NOTE: The Enable Platform Event Filters Alerts setting disables or enables
PEF alert generation. It is independent of the individual platform event alert
settings.
NOTE: System Power Probe Warning and System Power Probe Failure are
not supported on Dell systems without PMBus support although Server
Administrator allows you to configure them.
