Omcong system platformevents or omcong servermodule
platformevents
Use the omcong system platformevents or omcong servermodule platformevents command to congure shutdown action, if any, taken
for a specic platform event. You can also enable or disable platform event lter alert generation.
CAUTION: If you set a platform event shutdown action to anything other than none or power reduction , the system is forcefully
shut down when the specied event occurs. This shutdown is initiated by rmware and is carried out without rst 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.

generation of PowerEdge systems.
action=reboot Forces the operating system to shut down and initiates system startup, performs BIOS checks, and reloads
the operating system.
Components and events of platform events
The following table 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.

true: Enables generation of platform event lter alerts.
false: Disables generation of platform event lter alerts.
