For DMAs where there is an excessive number of information events being reported, >200K per day, is there a way to stop these events from being sent to the Cube session. For example, if the Information tab is NOT added to the alarm console will that stop the DMA from sending the events to the Cube? What about if it is added but just not selected as the Active tab? What about Information tabs that are included in other sides of the Cube when those sides are not active?
Thanks
These are standard DM messages generated when a service is edited
Here is an idea, when Cube is configured in Polling method (as opposed as Eventing) information events are not "sent to the Cube session" instead they are retrieved by the Cube. Assuming that the Cube only retrieves the information events based on the Alarm Console tab filter, we could configure a tab that shows only those information events we truly care about, if any. By default, the Alarm Console contains a tab that displays ALL recent information events which is obviously not ideal given the large number of information events.
Please do not hesitate in giving further responses to this thread. I'd like to know if this suggestion will actually work and whether there are other options to accomplish the objective stated by Jeff.
Thanks in advance
Hi Jeff,
Which type of information events are generating the bulk of the messages? Are these standard DataMiner information events, or custom events generated by your elements, scripts, etc…?
