Chapter 14 Using Notifications
Configuring Event Sets
You can use event sets to:
Limit the number of events that Operations Manager notification monitors. When you do not use
event sets, Operations Manager notification monitors all events to determine whether to send a
notification.
Aggregate the notifications that you want to send to different destinations. For example, you can
create separate event sets for each of the following purposes:
Limit the amount of e-mail notification sent to specific individuals or departments to only those
for certain events.
Write all occurrences of particular events to syslog.
Send SNMP traps when certain events occur.
When you create device-based notification criteria, you must include an event set as one of the criteria.
The default event set, All_Events, includes all events.
