Customizing Events
Where Customized Event Severity Is Displayed
When you customize event severity, it is reflected in all notifications—e-mail, SNMP traps, and syslog.
Operations Manager uses only the event severity levels in the following table.
You can specify a customized event severity level between 0 and 7. When generating traps, the severity
level you specify for the event is stored in the CISCO-EPM-NOTIFICATION-MIB and is sent in all
notifications.
Note When you customize event severity, Operations Manager continues to process the event based on its
default severity. Also, severity levels 3 through 7 are undefined in Operations Manager.
You can quickly and easily restore the default name and severity for any and all events.
Customizing Event Description and Severity
Note Default event names are displayed on the Event Customization page. For default event severity, locate
the event in Events Processed, page D-1.
Step 1 Select Notifications > Event Customization. The Event Customization page appears, displaying the
information shown in the following table.
