kb32: How to suppress events during certain times of the day


By csmith - Posted on 03 November 2009

If you have a known period of high resource usage for a device, and would like to delete Longitude events during that period, you can use a Delete action in a Longitude Action rule to remove the Events from the Event Monitor before they trigger any other actions. For example, deleting high Disk IO events for a backup server from from 3-5AM daily.

To set this up:

  1. Create an Action rule
  2. Select the Event that you would like to delete, and the monitored device or devices
  3. Create a schedule during which the selected events on the selected monitored device(s)should be deleted
  4. Select the Delete Events radio button as the action for the rule to take.
  5. ***Note:
    This feature is available in Longitude 5.0 and higher.
