Severity proles
OS10 allows you to change the severity of events using severity proles. A severity prole is a .xml le that denes the eective severity of
events or disables the notication of events.
OS10 comes with a default severity prole. You cannot modify or delete the default prole. However, OS10 allows you to dene custom
severity proles.
• Default severity prole—All events are dened in the default prole. The default prole classies the events as CRITICAL, WARNING,
or INFORMATIONAL in severity.
• Custom severity prole—Contains events that you modify. You can classify events as CRITICAL, MAJOR, MINOR, WARNING, or
INFORMATIONAL in severity.
Events and their characteristics that are dened in the custom prole take precedence over the default prole.
To create a custom severity prole, copy the default severity prole to a remote host and modify it. After the custom prole is created, copy
it from the remote host to the OS10 switch and apply it. The custom prole takes eect after a system restart.
NOTE:
• To customize severity proles, your user account must have any one of the following privileges: System admin (sysadmin),
security admin (secadmin), or network admin (netadmin).
• You cannot edit an active custom prole. To edit an active custom severity prole, select another severity prole and apply it.
The severity-prole:// partition contains all the dened severity proles. To view a list of severity proles, use the dir severity-
profile command.
To delete a severity prole, use the delete command. You can delete all severity proles except the default and active proles.
