Event Filter Builder window: Day and Time page
Use this page to specify day and time ranges as a filter
criterion. Specifying a day and time range in a filter controls the time that
actions are run and, therefore, not run.
The time zone that applies to this filtering criteria
is the time zone in which the server running IBM® Systems
Director Server is
located. If your browser system is not in the same time zone as the management
server, the difference in time zones is displayed above the selections pane.
For example, if the management server is located in New York and your browser
system is located in California, the time zone displayed and used is Eastern
Standard Time (EST). The following information is displayed above the selections
pane: Server Time - Local Time = 3 Hours
Fields
- Any
- Specifies whether you want to filter on specific day and
time ranges. By default, Any is selected. You
must clear the Any check box to select one or more
specific days, start times, or end times.
- Day of the week
- Specifies the day of the week to which this filter is to apply. Weekday
(Monday - Friday) and weekend (Saturday &
Sunday) selections are available.
- Starting time
- Specifies the starting time of an interval within which this filter is
active. If 12:00 AM is selected as the start time, it is treated as the beginning
of the current day.
- Ending time
- Specifies the ending time of an interval within which this filter is active.
If 12:00 AM is selected as an ending time, it is treated as the beginning
of the next day to include all events through the end of the current day.
- Block queued events
- Specifies that you do not want to filter on events that
were queued for transmission to IBM Systems
Director Server. Common Agent can queue events for
transmission to IBM Systems
Director Server if
the link between the system and the management server was unavailable. However,
you can prevent these queued events from being processed by the filter by
selecting Block queued events. This option can be useful if the timing
of the event is important, or if you want to avoid filtering on multiple queued
events that are sent all at once when IBM Systems
Director Server becomes
accessible.
