8 EventFilters
EventFilter settings can be configured using SCP Import and are found under these six components:
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.SystemHealth.1">
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.Storage.1">
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.Updates.1">
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.Audit.1">
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.Configuration.1">
<Component FQDD="EventFilters.WorkNotes.1"/>
The SCP template will contain many event filters. To help navigate this large array of settings, they are
broken down into categories. The three major categories of each setting are Critical (1), Warning (2) and
Informational (3). The settings available under each category will vary depending on the event filter.
Below is an example of a power event filter under the Informational (3) category. Each grouping will start with
a commented out DisplayName attribute stating the category. This attribute cannot be set and is just used to
assist in navigating the settings.
<!-- <Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#DisplayName">PWR_5_3 (Informational)</Attribute> -->
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#Email">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#SNMP">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#IPMI">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#SysLog">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#WSEventing">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#OSLog">Disabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Alert#RedfishEventing">Enabled</Attribute>
<Attribute Name="PWR_5_3#Action">No Action</Attribute>
Each of the event filters settings can be toggled, and an action can be set to perform when one of these
events is triggered. The available Action settings are:
• No Action
• Reboot
• PowerOff
• PowerCycle
Not all action options may be applicable to an event filter. Refer to the iDRAC User’s Guide for more
information on event filters.
