Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics
configure log filter events match
configure log filter <name> [add | delete] {exclude} events
[<event-condition> | [all | <event-component>] {severity <severity>
{only}}] [match | strict-match] <type> <value>
Description
Configures a log filter by adding or deleting a specified set of events and specific set of match
parameter values.
Syntax Description
Default
If the exclude keyword is not used, the events will be included by the filter. If severity is not
specified, then the filter will use the component default severity threshold (see the note on on page 246
when
delete or exclude is specified).
Usage Guidelines
This command controls the incidents that pass a filter by adding, or deleting, a specified set of events
that match a list of
<type> <value> pairs. This command is an extension of the command configure
log filter events
, and adds the ability to filter incidents based on matching specified event
parameter values to the event.
See the configure log filter events command on page 245 for more information on specifying and
using filters, on event conditions and components, and on the details of the filtering process. The
discussion here is about the concepts of matching
<type> <value> pairs to more narrowly define
filters.
Types and Values. Each event in ExtremeWare XOS is defined with a message format and zero or
more parameter types. The
