8.6 Tuning incidents

You can use any of the following methods to reduce the number of incidents in the NNMi console incident views:

• Disable the incident configuration for any incident types that are not needed on the NNMi console.

• Set the management mode of the network objects that you do not need to monitor to Not Managed or Out of Service. NNMi discards all incoming traps from these nodes and their interfaces.

• Set NNMi to not monitor some network objects. NNMi discards all incoming traps from source objects that are not monitored.

• Identify additional criteria for or relationships between incoming incidents. When these criteria or relationships occur, NNMi modifies the flow of incidents by recognizing the criteria or patterns of incoming management events or SNMP traps and nesting related incidents as correlated children.
