Configuring event log throttling

Last Updated : May 08, 2015 |

About this task

You can enable and configure event log throttling for a particular event. When throttling is enabled, the system reports only the most recent event log and its contents. Log throttling prevents the event logs from being flooded with recurring identical events. When you enable throttling, the system generates an event log and its occurrence count at the end of the interval specified by Event Log Throttle Check Window (Secs).

Procedure

  1. Navigate to EM > System Configuration > Monitoring Settings > Event Logs > General Settings.
  2. Select Event Log Throttling to enable log throttling for events.
  3. Configure Event Log Throttle Check Window (Secs) to set the interval in seconds to audit the throttled logs.
  4. Configure Event Log Archive Minimum Log Age (Days) to set the minimum time in days to keep an event log archive before the system deletes it.
  5. Click Save.
