Sample Event Rules
Sample PDU-Level Event Rule
In this example, we want Dominion PX to record the firmware upgrade
failure in the internal log when it happens. The sample event rule looks like
this:
Event: Events > Device > Firmware update failed
Trigger condition: asserted
Actions: System Event Log Action
To create the above event rule:
1. Select Events > Device to indicate we are specifying an event at the
PDU level.
2. Select "Firmware update failed" in the submenu because we want
Dominion PX to respond to the event related to firmware upgrade
failure.
3. Select System Event Log Action as we intend to record the firmware
update failure event in the internal log.
4. Select the "asserted" radio button since we want the selected event to
be recorded only when it occurs.
