Enable PEF
This option is used to globally enable or disable platform event ltering.
Enable SEL Event Messages for PEF Actions
When this option is checked, each action triggered by a lter generates an event message for the
action. This allows the occurrence of PEF-triggered events to be logged in the System Event Log if
event logging is enabled.
PEF Startup Delay
This option is used to congure the time in seconds to delay platform event ltering after a system
power up or reset.
The number number of seconds allowed is between 60 and 255. The default is 60 seconds.
Alert Startup Delay
This setting is used to congure the time in seconds to delay sending out alerts after a system power
up or reset.
The number number of seconds allowed is between 60 and 255. 0 indicates no delay.
PEF Action Global Settings
This set of check boxes globally enables PEF actions that can occur when an event lter is triggered.
For a lter to trigger a particular chassis action (power cycle, reset, power down, or diagnostic interrupt)
the global setting must be enabled and the specic chassis action must be selected for the lter. The
chassis actions are congured in the screen that appears after you click Next.
The check boxes allow enabling or disabling of the following:
• Power Cycle: This check box globally enables / disables the Power Cycle action when an event
lter is triggered. The action is enabled when the box is checked.
• Reset: This check box globally enables / disables the system reset action when an event lter is
triggered. The action is enabled when the box is checked.
• Power Down: This check box globally enables / disables the system power down action when
an event lter is triggered. The action is enabled when the box is checked.
• Diagnostic Interrupt: This check box globally enables / disables a diagnostic (non-maskable)
interrupt when an event lter is triggered. The action is enabled with the box is checked.
• Alert: This check box globally enables / disables alerts when an event lter is triggered. The
action is enabled when the box is checked.
Event Filter Settings
The PEF Event Filters Settings screen, shown in the gure below, displays the supported pre-congured
event lters, along with settings associated with the event lters. These associated settings are:
• Whether the lter is enabled or disabled.
• The policy number associated with the lter (required only if alerts are enabled).
• A chassis action that occurs if the lter event occurs.
• Whether alerts are enabled or disabled if the lter event occurs.
The settings associated with a particular lter can be edited. Select the radio button next to a lter
and then clicking the Edit button.
