6.5.2 Displaying only severe events

To display only severe events on the screen, from the Event Console window, choose the Severe Events page. The events list on the Severe Events page displays only the severe events from among the JP1 events that are displayed on the Monitor Events page.

The administrator can define which JP1 events are considered severe events. The default is that JP1 events whose severity level is Emergency, Alert, Critical, or Error are defined as severe events.

If the number of severe events displayed on the Severe Events page exceeds the maximum number of events that can be displayed on the screen, the oldest severe events are erased. The first severe event to be erased is a Processed severe event. If there are no Processed severe events, the oldest event among the Unprocessed, Held, and Processing severe events is deleted. In this case, the oldest severe event is deleted regardless of its status. For details about how to set a response status for JP1 events, see 6.3.2 Setting a response status for JP1 events from the events list.

By enabling the integrated monitoring database, you can display all events stored in it. To display specific events, use the slider to adjust the event display start-time. For details about how to set up the integrated monitoring database, see 1.4.2 Setting up the integrated monitoring database (for Windows) or 2.4.2 Setting up the integrated monitoring database (for UNIX) in the JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Configuration Guide.

When you use the repeated event monitoring suppression function, deleting a consolidated event from the events list deletes any of the oldest 100 repeated events that have not already been deleted. It does not delete the 101st and subsequent repeated events. Note that deleting a repeated event does not reduce the number of consolidated events.

If a view filter is set, you can further filter the JP1 events that are displayed. Select the filter you want to apply from the Filter name list box, and then select the View Filter check box. Only JP1 events that satisfy the set filtering conditions will be displayed.

If, in the Preferences window, you select the Display check box of the Coloring field, and you then click the Include the Severe Events page radio button, the background of a line in an event list is highlighted in the color for that event level.

You can change the background color in the system color definition file (systemColor.conf). For details, see System color definition file (systemColor.conf) in Chapter 2. Definition Files of the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.
