Configuring alarms for Syslog messages

IMC relies on system and user defined rules to determine which of the Syslog events received by IMC

generates alarms and the resolution of alarms. IMC includes many system defined rules that generate

and resolve alarms based on Syslog events received by IMC. You can also create user defined rules that

generate or resolve alarms based on Syslog events received by IMC.
IMC separates the identification of content in Syslog entries from the configuration of alarm generation

and resolution rules.
Syslog templates allow you to define the content that must exist in a Syslog entry to be escalated to an

alarm or its resolution. Once created, the Syslog templates can then be applied to one or more alarm

generation and resolution rules.
You can create both Syslog templates and Syslog alarm rules from scratch or they can be copied from

existing system defined templates and rules and modified to meet your needs.

Using Syslog templates

Syslog templates are used by Syslog to Alarm rules to match Syslog template content against Syslog

entries, which are used by the Syslog to Alarm rules to determine whether or not an alarm is generated.
User defined Syslog templates must be created before the Syslog to Alarm rules that depend on them can

be created.
You can view system defined Syslog templates. You can also create user defined Syslog templates or they

can be copied from existing system defined templates.
