Description This command is used to specify that a particular event or all events associated with an application is
either generated or suppressed.
Events are generated by an application and contain an event number and description explaining the
cause of the event. Each event has a default designation which directs it to be generated or
suppressed.
Events are generated with a default severity level that can be modified by using the severity-level
option.
Events that are suppressed by default are typically used for debugging purposes. Events are
suppressed at the time the application requests the event's generation. No event log entry is generated
regardless of the destination. While this feature can save processor resources, there may be a negative
effect on the ability to troubleshoot problems if the logging entries are squelched. In reverse,
indiscriminate application may cause excessive overhead.
The rate of event generation can be throttled by using the throttle parameter.
The no form of the command reverts the parameters to the default setting for events for the
application or a specific event within the application. The severity, generate, and suppress options
will also be reset to the initial values.
Default Each event has a default suppress or generate state. To display a list of all events and the current
configuration use the event-control command.
Parameters
application-id — The application whose events are affected by this event control filter.
event-name | event-number — To generate, suppress, or revert to default for a single event, enter the
7210 SAS-E OS System Management Guide
Default None, this parameter must be explicitly specified.
Values A valid application name. To display a list of valid application names, use the
applications command. Valid applications are:
specific number or event short name. If no event number or name is specified, the command
applies to all events in the application. To display a list of all event short names use the event-
control command.
Default none
Values
