5.4.2 Notes on using event receiver filters
It may take time to get events for displaying the events list if you do one of the following operations in the integrated operation viewer window when setting up an event receiver filter:
-
If you select an IM management node
-
If you use a button on the toolbar in the Events area to update the events list
In these cases, event acquisition is interrupted after a certain number of searches and the events acquired before the interruption are displayed in the Events area.
You can change the upper limit for the number of searches before event acquisition is interrupted in the jp1.imdd.gui.settings.eventSearchCount property of the Intelligent Integrated Management Base definition file (imdd.properties). If you want to shorten the time before event acquisition is interrupted, decrease the upper limit for the number of searches. If you want to lengthen the time before event acquisition is interrupted, increase the upper limit for the number of searches. If you do not want to interrupt event acquisition, set the upper limit for the number of searches to 0.
We recommend you use a system node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf) or a business group, not an event receiver filter, for the limit of events that can be referred to or worked with in the Intelligent Integrated Management Base.
For details about the jp1.imdd.gui.settings.eventSearchCount property, see Intelligent Integrated Management Base definition file (imdd.properties) in Chapter 2. Definition Files of the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference, and for details about the system node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf), see System node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf) in Chapter 2. Definition Files.
