Configure Event Policies to Ignore an Event
You can modify a policy to cause particular events to
be ignored or to cause all events to be ignored during a particular
time interval, to allow for maintenance for example. To configure
such a policy, include the following statements at the [edit
event-options] hierarchy level:
[edit event-options] policy policy-name { events [ events ]; then { ignore; } }
In the events statement, you can list multiple
events. To view a list of the events that can be referenced in an
event policy, issue the set event-options policy policy-name events ? configuration mode command:
[edit] user@host# set event-options policy policy-name events ? Possible completions: <event> [ Open a set of values acct_accounting_ferror acct_accounting_fopen_error ...
Some of the system log messages that you can reference in an
event policy are not listed in the output of the set event-options
policy policy-name events ? command. For
information about referencing these system log messages in your event
policies, see Use Nonstandard System Log Messages to Trigger Event Policies.
In addition, you can reference internally generated events, which are discussed in Generate Internal Events to Trigger Event Policies.
If one or more of the listed events occur, a system log message
for the event is not generated, and no further policies associated
with this event are processed. If you include the ignore statement in a policy configuration, you cannot configure any other
actions in the policy.
