| strict-match] <type> <value> {and <type> <value> ...}
Description
Configures a log filter by adding or deleting a specified set of events and specific set of match
parameter values.
Syntax Description
Default
If the
exclude
keyword is not used, the events will be included by the filter. If
severity
is not
specified, then the filter will use the component default severity threshold (see the note on on page 684
when
delete
or
exclude
is specified).
Usage Guidelines
This command controls the incidents that pass a filter by adding or deleting a specified set of events
that match a list of <type> <value> pairs. This command is an extension of the command
configure
log filter events
, and adds the ability to filter incidents based on matching specified event
parameter values to the event.
See the
configure log filter events
command on page 683 for more information about specifying
and using filters, event conditions and components, and the details of the filtering process. The
discussion here is about the concepts of matching <type> <value> pairs to more narrowly define filters.
