The alarmd.cfg and alarmf.cfg Files
These files contain a reference to any filter set file that is to be instituted upon system
startup. Filter sets are used to limit the types and number of alarms that are passed by
the daemons for eventual display by the alarm viewers, or to initiate some other action
in response to receiving alarms that satisfy certain criteria. For additional information,
see Alarm Filtering on page 203. The addflt command is used to enable a filter
set file; the clearflt command to disable it. References in these configuration
files must include the full path name to the filter set file unless it resides in the
MPSHOME/common/etc subdirectory. In that case the name of the file itself is
sufficient. In the example below, the filter set file filter_set.flt exists in
/home/peri. Only one filter set file may be active at a time. This file must be
created for and only exists on systems taking advantage of alarm filter sets at startup.
Filter sets, though standard ASCII files, should be appended with the .flt
extension.
Example: alarm*.cfg
#
addflt /home/peri/filter_set.flt
