5.2 Setting JP1 event filtering

You can set filters to limit the types of JP1 events that will be displayed in the Event Console window. This enables you to display only the JP1 events that satisfy your monitoring purposes. There are four types of filters that can be set from the Event Console window:

• View filters

  View filters define conditions for displaying JP1 events on the Monitor Events page or the Severe Events page in the Event Console window. You can define a maximum of 50 view filters per JP1 user.

• Event receiver filters

  Event receiver filters define the types of JP1 events that can be monitored by the user. The system administrator can define a maximum of 128 event receiver filters.

• Severe events filters

  Severe events filters define the severe events that are to be displayed on the Severe Events page in the Event Console window.

• Event acquisition filters^#

  Event acquisition filters define filter conditions to be applied when JP1/IM - Manager (Event Base Service) acquires events from JP1/Base (Event Service). You can define a maximum of 50 event acquisition filters per manager.

  #

  Event acquisition filters are for compatibility. They provide filter conditions to be applied when JP1/IM - Manager control (Event Console Service) acquires events from JP1/IM - Manager control (Event Base Service).

The following subsections describe how to set each type of filter.
