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.
