Alerts 33
You are also provided with an option to receive either a single alert or a limited
number of alerts of the occurrence of an event, of a given type. You can mask
out specific events and can generate single alert messages for only those events.
The
Dell_IndicationStaticValues
class has the
MaxNTEventLogNotifications
,
MaxDisplayNotifications
, and the
OccurrencesCount
properties, which
control the number of notices of each alert condition that are sent to the NT
event log and to the local display. For example, setting a value of 0 will not send
any notices.
You can change any attribute or CIM class through standard CIM editors.
The following properties in the Dell_IndicationStaticValues class control the
number of notifications of each alert condition that are sent to the NT event
log and to the display. You can modify the below listed values through
standard CIM editors or through scripts.
•
MaxNTEventLogNotifications:
The maximum number of event
notifications
sent to the NT event log. Values are 0=never send, 1=first
occurrence only, 2=first and second occurrences, and so on. The special
value of
–
1 sends all occurrences. The default value is
–
1.
•
MaxDisplayNotifications:
The maximum number of event
notifications
sent to the local display. Values are 0=never send, 1=first occurrence only,
2=first and second occurrences, and so on. The special value of
–
1 sends
all occurrences. The default value is
–
1.
•
OccurrencesCount:
The number of event
notifications
of the given alert
that have occurred since the last reset. The initial value is 0. Setting
OccurrencesCount
to 0 restarts the sending of notices.
Since the instances of the Dell_ IndicationStaticValues class are stored in
the WMI repository, the above data is persistent across shutdown, restart,
sleep, hibernate, and standby modes. You can reset the OccurrencesCount at
reboot by installing a script to run at startup.
NOTE: You are not allowed to make changes to some properties including the
MaxDisplayNotifications and MaxNTEventLogNotifications in the
Dell_IndicationStaticValues class in the CIM repository unless the User Account
Control (UAC) in Windows Vista is turned off, or the user is the Administrator
account.
