Create an Event Filter

The following step describes how to create an event filter.

1. Create an instance of AMT_PETFilterSetting with the following mandatory properties:

Property	Value
ElementName	Enter any value (the value is overridden)
InstanceID	Enter any value (the value is overridden)
EnableFilter	Specifies whether to enable the filter. Valid values: • True (1) • False (0)
OEMFilter	Specifies whether this filter is an OEM pre-configured filter. (The filter entry has been configured by the system integrator and cannot be altered by software, updated, enabled, disabled, or removed) Valid values: • True (1) • False (0)
LogOnEvent	Specifies whether to log the events to the Event Log. Valid values: • True (1) • False (0)
DeviceAddress	The SMBus address of the physical sensor device that implements the logical sensor. To select all addresses, enter 255.
EventSensorType	The value of the alert's Event Sensor Type field. To select all sensor types, enter 255.
EventType	Enter the value from the event definition (see Event Types Summary) or from the table of events (see the Event Type column in the WSEventAndPetTableReplacement.xls file). For example, to select OEM Discrete events, enter 113.
EventOffset	The value of the alert's Event Offset field. To select all values, enter 15.
EventSourceType	The value of the alert's Event Source Type field. To select all values, enter 255.
EventSeverity	The value of the alert's Event Severity field. To select all values, enter 0.
SensorNumber	The value of the alert's Sensor Number field. To select all values, enter 255.
Entity	The value of the alert's Entity field. To select all values, enter 0.
EntityInstance	The value of the alert's Entity Instance field. To select all values, enter 0.
PolicyID	The ID number of the event filter. To send events caught by this filter to a subscriber, enter this number in the PolicyID property of the AMT_SNMPEventSubscriber representing the subscriber. (See Create an Event Filter Subscriber.)
SendAlert	Specifies whether to send PETs for these events. Valid values: • True (1) • False (0)

Note:

For details of the alert event fields values, see the following:

• AMT Generated Events

• The Alert Standard Format (ASF) Specification DSP0136
