HP B6191-90029 manual Monitoring Requests Configuration Settings, Setting Description

Installing and Using Monitors

Adding a Monitoring Request

	added to the monitoring configuration. When you restart the system or execute the IOSCAN
	utility (thus performing a real/hard IOSCAN), the new hardware will be included in event
	monitoring.
	If you add a new class of supported hardware resource to your system, any monitoring requests
	that apply to All monitors are used for the new hardware, ensuring that your hardware is
	protected immediately from undetected failure.
	For hardware monitoring to recognize new devices, the new devices must be properly added
	and configured, so that they are recognized by the kernel (ioscan -k must see them).
Table 2-14		Monitoring Requests Configuration Settings
Setting		Description
Criteria		This value identifies the severity level used in conjunction with the
Thresholds		criteria operator to generate an event message. See Table 2-15 on
		page 48, for an explanation of severity levels.
Criteria		This value identifies the arithmetic operator used with the criteria
Operators		threshold to control what events are reported. Valid operators are:
		< (less than)
		<= (less than or equal to)
		> (greater than)
		>= (greater than or equal than)
		! (not equal to)
		Operators treat each severity level as a numeric value assigned as
		follows:
		Critical = 5
		Serious = 4
		Major warning = 3
		Minor warning = 2
		Informational = 1
		The criteria operators allow you to direct events of several severity
		levels using the same notification method. For example, to direct both
		Serious and Critical events using the same method, you would use a
		condition of >= Serious.
