Configuring event suppression

Some events might not be important with respect to monitoring your network environment. For events that do not need to be viewed or acted on, event suppression is available as an action when creating a seasonal event rule.

About this task

For seasonal event rules, specify the ObjectServer fields to use for suppressing and unsuppressing events.

Procedure

  1. To suppress an event, select a Suppression field and Suppression field value from the drop-down lists provided. The field and value that you define here are used to mark the event for suppression when the incoming event matches the seasonal event rule with event suppression selected as one of its actions.
  2. To unsuppress an event, select an Unsuppression field and Unsuppression field value from the drop-down lists provided. The field and value that you define here are used to unsuppress an event when the incoming event matches the seasonal event rule with event suppression selected as one of its actions.
