Default
Parameters for SystemEvtTest
The SystemEvtTest reports statistical information about the system events generated by the target system. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the SystemEvtTest.
-
The TEST PERIOD
list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.
-
In the LOGTYPE text box, specify the type of event logs to be monitored. The default value is system.
-
While configuring this test for a specific component, you will have the following options:
- Manually specify the event sources, IDs, and descriptions to be monitored, or,
- Select a filter policy within which the event sources, IDs and descriptions to be monitored have been pre-defined
If you want the first option to be the default selection for all Eventlog components that are managed subsequently, then set the POLICYFILTER flag to false. If you want the second option to be the default, then set the POLICYFILTER flag to true.
-
In the FILTER text box, mention the filter policy to be selected by default for all Eventlog components managed henceforth.
-
By default, the EVENTS DURING RESTART flag is set to 'Yes'. This ensures that whenever the agent is stopped and later started, the events that might have occurred during the period of non-availability of the agent are included in the number of events reported by the agent. Setting the flag to 'No' ensures that the agent, when restarted, ignores the events that occurred during the time it was not available.
-
The DDFREQ refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. The DDFREQ refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. Typically, detailed diagnosis frequencies are set globally, using the DIAGNOSIS CONFIGURATION page that appears when the Configure -> Diagnosis menu sequence is followed. This global setting can be overridden at the test-level using the DDFREQ parameter. To disable the detailed diagnosis capability for a test, you can set this parameter to none.
