4.4 Suppressing display of repeated events

JP1/IM - Manager enables you to set JP1 event attributes and comparison keywords as repeated event conditions and consolidate the JP1 events that meet the repeated event conditions into consolidation events in JP1/IM - View. You can thus suppress the display of those individual JP1 events in the event list. This functionality is called the suppression of repeated-event display.

The following explanation focuses on an operation, during daily monitoring, to set repeated event conditions for the JP1 events that need not be monitored and display such events as a single consolidated JP1 event.

Figure 4‒33: Displaying repeated events as a single consolidated JP1 event

Repeated events, here, mean the JP1 events that meet set repeated event conditions, except for the case described in 4.4.10 Suppressing repeated-event display by the consolidated display of repeated events.

Suppressing the display of repeated events requires the following preconditions to be met:

The integrated monitoring database has been set up and enabled (by jcoimdef -db ON).
The suppression of repeated-event monitoring has been enabled (by jcoimdef -storm ON).
The repeated event condition to suppress the display of repeated events in the event list has been applied.

For details about the jcoimdef command, see jcoimdef in 1. Commands in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 3 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.

For details about how to apply repeated event conditions, see 3.19 List of Repeated Event Conditions window in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 3 - Manager GUI Reference.

Relationship between the suppression of repeated-event display and the repeated-event monitoring suppression function

The suppression of repeated-event display is part of the repeated-event monitoring suppression function.

The following figure shows the relationship between the repeated-event monitoring suppression function and the suppression of repeated-event display.

For details about the repeated-event monitoring suppression function, see 14.1.5 Considerations for suppressing the monitoring of repeated events and a large number of events.

For details about how to enable the suppression of repeated-event monitoring, see 5.3 Setting monitoring of repeated events to be prevented in the JP1/Integrated Management 3 - Manager Configuration Guide.
