An event filter defines properties used by the default
filter plug-in, which is used by emitters to filter events at the
source.
About this task
An event filter can be specified as part of the configuration
of an emitter factory. Any emitter created using that emitter factory
then uses the specified filter to determine which event should be
sent to the event service.
To create an event filter:
Procedure
- In the server administrative console, click Service
Integration > Common Event Infrastructure > Event Emitter
Factories > emitter_factory > Event Filters > New.
- Specify the properties of the new event filter. Refer
to the online help for the Event Filter Settings page for detailed
information about these properties.
- Save the configuration changes.
- In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the
node.
- Restart the server.
Results
Event emitters can now use the configured filter to determine
which events to send to the event service.
