Figure 2‒44: Event Attributes page

The following describes the items displayed on the Event Attributes page.

Display items & order

Specifies the items that are to be displayed in the event list of the Event Console window.

The Display items & order list box displays the items that are displayed in the event list. The Available items list box displays the items that are not displayed in the event list. The items in the list boxes can be moved back and forth by using the -> and <- buttons.

The items in the event list are displayed in the same order used to display the items in the Display items & order list box. The user can change the display order of an item by selecting the item in the Display items & order list box and then clicking the Up or Down button.

In the Preferences window, the user can specify the display settings for the following items:

Event level, Registered time, Source host, User name, Message, Object type, Event ID, Start time, End time, Product name, Object name, Root object type, Root object name, Arrived time, Action, Occurrence, Serial number, Source process ID, Source user ID, Source group ID, Source user name, Source group name, Source serial number, Type, Action type, Original Severity Level^#1, New Severity Level^#1, Memo^#2, and Event source host name^#3

#1: Items that the user can set if the function for changing the severity level is enabled when the integrated monitoring database is used.

#2: An item that the user can set if the function for setting memo entries is enabled when the integrated monitoring database is used.

#3: An item that the user can set when the event source host mapping function is enabled in an environment that uses the integrated monitoring database.

Note that in the Event Console window and Related Events window, the event status is always displayed as the first item in the event list, regardless of the settings in the Preferences window.

Also note that if the function for displaying consolidated repeated events (Display most significant status) is enabled, the Summary Status column is displayed to the right of the Event status column. If this function is disabled, the Summary Status column continues to be displayed until the user logs in again.

Also note that if suppression of monitoring of repeated events or consolidated display of repeated events is enabled, the Summary Status column is displayed to the right of the Status column. If suppression of monitoring of repeated events or consolidated display of repeated events is disabled, the Summary Status column continues to be displayed until the user logs in again.

Display window

This option specifies whether to save the current configuration of the Event Console window when the user logs out from JP1/IM - View, and restore it when he or she logs in again. This includes the page that was last displayed in the Event Console window, the view filters selected in the Monitor Events and Severe Events pages, and the status of the view filter check boxes. To save these aspects of the Event Console window and restore them at login, select the Save the page that was displayed when the window was closed, and the application state of the view filter check box.

This check box is unavailable when:

The version of the connection-target JP1/IM - Manager is 10-50 or earlier
You are using the Web-based JP1/IM - View

Column width

Specifies whether to save the column width of each item displayed in the event list of each page of the Event Console window when the user logs out from JP1/IM - View.

The column width of each item displayed in the event list can be changed by dragging. A change in a column width on one page (for example, Monitor Events) is applied to the other two pages (for example, Severe Events and Search Events). When the Save the status of the window when closing check box is selected, the column width status is saved when the user logs out.

Display font

Specifies in points the font size of JP1 events listed in the Event Console window. The specifiable value range is from 12 to 72.

Coloring

Specifies whether to add background colors to specific events displayed on the Monitor Events, Severe Events, and Search Events pages of the Event Console window. Background colors can be added to events that have the severity levels Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, and Warning.

Select the Enable check box to add background colors to the Monitor Events and Search Events pages. To add background colors to the Severe Events page, select the Include the Severe Events page radio button.

For details about background colors, see 2.1 Overview of the Event Console window.

Display most significant status

Specifies whether to use consolidated display of repeated events.

Clicking the OK button in the Preferences window completes the consolidation of events being consolidated. If you are using the repeated event monitoring suppression function, the Enable check box is unavailable and cannot be selected on this page.

Enable

When this check box is selected, repeated events are consolidated. Consolidation is enabled for the events received after the settings in the Preferences window are applied. The events received before the settings are applied are not consolidated.

By default, this check box is not selected.

Timeout time

Specifies the number of seconds used as the timeout value for consolidating repeated events. The range of specifiable values is from 1 to 3,600. The default is 60.

When the difference between the arrival time of a consolidation start event and the arrival times of received events reaches the timeout value, the consolidation is completed.

Specified display event period

Specifies whether to use the function for displaying events that occurred during a specified period.

Display: When this check box is selected, events occurring during the specified period are displayed. If this check box is selected, the Use specified display event period check box appears on the Monitor Events page and the Severe Events page.
Base time: Specifies a time for displaying JP1 events. As the hour, you can specify a value from 00 to 23. The default value is 09 hours. As the minutes, you can specify a value from 00 to 59. The default value is 00 minutes.
Display period: Specifies a period for displaying JP1 events. You can specify a value from 1 to 31 (days). The default is 1 day.
