Configuring Event Rules
A benefit of the product's intelligence is its ability to notify you of and react
to a change in conditions. This event notification or reaction is an "event
rule."
The Dominion PX is shipped with two built-in event rules, which cannot be
deleted.
System Event Log Rule: This rule causes ANY event occurred to the
Dominion PX to be recorded in the internal log. The rule is enabled by
default.
System SNMP Trap Rule: This rule causes SNMP traps to be sent to
specified IP addresses or hosts when ANY event occurs to the
Dominion PX. The rule is disabled by default.
If these two do not satisfy your needs, you can create additional rules to
respond to different events.
Note: Internet Explorer
®
8 (IE8) does not use compiled JAVA script. When
using IE8 to create or change event rules, the CPU performance may be
degraded, resulting in the appearance of the connection time out message.

Components of an Event Rule
An event rule defines what the Dominion PX does in certain situations and
is composed of two parts:
Event: This is the situation where the Dominion PX or part of it meets a
certain condition. For example, the inlet's voltage exceeds the warning
threshold.
Action: This is the response to the event. For example, the Dominion
PX notifies the system administrator of the event and records the
event in the log.
Creating an Event Rule
The best way to create a new set of event rule, in sequence, is:
Create actions for responding to one or multiple events.
Create rules to determine what actions are taken when these events
occur.
