Filtering And Routing Event Messages; Enabling And Disabling Logging - HP StorageWorks SR2122 User Manual

Filtering and Routing Event Messages

The storage router logging table allows messages to be filtered by their facility
and notification level and routed to the specified destination(s). When an event
message arrives, the logging table rules are searched by facility name and by level
until the first match is found. The message is sent to all the destinations specified
by the matching rule. If no match is found, the event message is discarded.
When a new routing rule is added, it is appended to the existing table. Use the
logging level command to add a new routing rule to the logging table; use
the logging #? command to insert a routing rule into the logging table before
the specified entry.
Each facility can have eight notification levels. Each facility and notification level
pair can have up to seven destinations.
In Example
logging table included the entries in Example14, the event message in
would match on the first routing rule, and would be sent to all valid destinations.
Any message from the SNMP facility at notification level info, and any message
from another facility at notification level info (or lower) would match on the
second rule and be sent to the storage router console and log file. All messages
from any facility at notification level debug would be discarded.

The logging table can be saved and retained across the storage router restart. The
order of the rules in the logging table is preserved when entries are deleted.
