Reference Guide

NOTE: You can either specify the index and IP address as parameters together or you can set only the community
string as a parameter.
NOTE: Index 1 to 4 accepts an IPv4 address and index 5 to 8 accepts an IPv6 address. On 12G systems with
iDRAC7 specific versions, the index can accept IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN.
Table 43. Valid Parameters Of Omconfig System Pedestinations Or Omconfig Servermodule Pedestinations
name=Value Pair Description
destenable=true | false
true: Enables an individual platform event filter destination after a valid IP address has
been set.
false: Disables an individual platform event filter.
index=number Sets the index for the destination.
ipaddress=< ipv4 address |
ipv6 address | fqdn >
Sets the IP address for the destination.
NOTE: On 12G systems with iDRAC7 specific versions, ipaddress can also be a Fully
Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).
communitystr=text Sets the text string that acts as a password and is used to authenticate SNMP messages
sent between the BMC and the destination management station.
Omconfig System Platformevents Or Omconfig Servermodule Platformevents
Use the omconfig system platformevents or omconfig servermodule platformevents command to configure shutdown
action, if any, taken for a specific platform event. You can also enable or disable platform event filter alert generation.
CAUTION: If you set a platform event shutdown action to anything other than none or power reduction , the system
is forcefully shutdown when the specified event occurs. This shutdown is initiated by firmware and is carried out
without first shutting down the operating system or any of the applications running on your system.
The following table displays 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 44. Parameters For Alert Action Command

action=disable Disables the SNMP alert.
action=enable Enables the SNMP alert.
action=none Takes no action when the system is hung or has crashed.
action=powercycle Turns off the electrical power to the system, pauses, turns the power on, and reboots the
system.
action=poweroff Turns off the electrical power to the system.
action=powerreductio
n
Reduces the processor speed until the power consumption comes down and reaches below
the warning threshold. If the system power consumption stays below the warning threshold,
increases the processor speed.
NOTE: This action is applicable only for PowerEdge Rack and Tower systems earlier
than PowerEdge 11G systems.
