Filtering events

You can specify how the JMS filters the events sent to the probe by using the JmsFilter property. This property allows you to specify a filter that uses the JMS properties associated with the event.

You can filter events using any of the JMS properties. For example, the following filter is based on fault messages with a severity class of Warning:

ALA_category in (\'FAULT\') and MTOSI_perceivedSeverity in (\'Warning\')

By default, the JMS filters events sent to the probe using the following filter:

ALA_category not in (\'STATISTICS\', \'ACCOUNTING\')

Note: The JMS filter must contain

ALA_clientId in ('persistent_jms_id',
'')

where persistent_jms_id is the value set for the PersistentJmsId property. If you change the value of the PersistentJmsId property, you must also change the value in the JMS filter accordingly.

The following table describes all JMS properties that are available for use in filters. For each property, the table lists the possible values that the property can take.
