Table 4-25 shows the valid parameters for the command.
NOTE: Alert settings are mutually exclusive and you can set one at a time only.
The action settings are also mutually exclusive and you can set one at a time only.
However, alert and action settings are not mutually exclusive of each other.
Table 4-26 lists the components and the events for which you can set
platform events. Components are listed in alphabetical order, except that
warning events always precede failure events for a component.
