Chapter3 Managing ITP Networks Using SGM

Working with Events

You can instruct SGM to ignore a link when it aggregates and displays network

data. Setting links to Ignored prevents known link problems from affecting SGM

displays for associated linksets and nodes. In effect, you are preventing a known

problem from distracting you from other, more urgent network problems.

For example, you can set a link to Ignored before shutting down the link for

maintenance.

Note If you set a link to Ignored, the link is ignored for all SGM clients and views

connected to that SGM server.

Also, if you set a link to Ignored, make a note of the change, and do not forget to

reset the link when the problem is corrected or the maintenance is complete.

To set a link to Ignored, right-click the link in the Link Details window

(Figure 3-37), then select Ignore from the right-click menu.

To display all links that are Ignored, display the Link Window and click the

Ignored column header. SGM displays all ignored links at the top of the table.
