Alerts are sent when conditions in the switch match an alert level that you create by editing a preconfigured rule already on the switch. Part of configuring the rule is specifying the alert level, and also, specifying the alert type, which can be an IPMI PET. When an alert of the specified level or greater occurs, the switch then sends an IPM PET. By default, alerts are disabled.
-> set /SP/alertmgmt/rules/alert/ destination=IP_address level=level type=ipmipet
where:
alert is the number of the alert.
IP_address is the IP address of the host to receive the PET trap.
level is the level of the alert.
For example, to set alert 2 to send ipmipet traps on occurrence of minor or higher severity events to the host at 123.45.67.89, type:
-> set /SP/alertmgmt/rules/2/ destination=123.45.67.89 level=minor type=ipmipet Set 'destination' to '123.45.67.89' Set 'level' to 'minor' Set 'type' to 'ipmipet' ->
This is an example of a PET trap of a minor level alert.
