Table 4-19. Enabling User Access for Administrators, Power Users, and Users Command omconfig preferences useraccess enable=user omconfig preferences useraccess enable=poweruser omconfig preferences useraccess enable=admin Result Description Grants Server Least restrictive form Administrator access of user access. to Users, Power Users, and Administrators. Grants Server Administrator access to Power Users and Administrators. Excludes user level access only. Grants Server Most restrictive form Administrator access of user access. to Administrators only. omconfig system Use the omconfig system commands to clear logs, determine how various shutdown actions occur, set initial values or edit values for cost of ownership information, and determine how to respond to a hung operating system. omconfig system alertaction You can use the omconfig system alertaction command to determine how Server Administrator responds when a component has a warning or failure event. Defining Alert Actions An alert action is an action that you can specify for your system to take when specified conditions are met. Alert actions determine in advance what actions are to be taken for warning or failure events on intrusion, fans, temperatures, voltages, power supplies, memory, and redundancy. For example, if a fan probe on your system reads a fan RPM of 300 and your minimum warning threshold value for that fan probe is 600 RPM, then your system generates a fan probe warning. Alert action settings determine how persons are notified of this event. For temperature, voltage, and current probe readings that fall within the warning or failure range, you can also configure alert actions. Syntax for Setting Alert Actions Setting an alert action requires two name=value pairs. The first name=value pair is the event type. The second name=value pair is the action you want to take for this event. For example, in the command: omconfig system alertaction event=powersupply broadcast=true the event is a power supply failure and the action is to broadcast a message to all Server Administrator users. omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service 89

omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service

omconfig system

Use the

omconfig system

commands to clear logs, determine how various shutdown actions occur, set

initial values or edit values for cost of ownership information, and determine how to respond to a hung

operating system.

omconfig system alertaction

You can use the

omconfig system alertaction

command to determine how Server Administrator responds

when a component has a warning or failure event.

Defining Alert Actions

An alert action is an action that you can specify for your system to take when specified conditions are

met. Alert actions determine in advance what actions are to be taken for warning or failure events on

intrusion, fans, temperatures, voltages, power supplies, memory, and redundancy.

For example, if a fan probe on your system reads a fan RPM of 300 and your minimum warning threshold

value for that fan probe is 600 RPM, then your system generates a fan probe warning. Alert action

settings determine how persons are notified of this event. For temperature, voltage, and current probe

readings that fall within the warning or failure range, you can also configure alert actions.

Syntax for Setting Alert Actions

Setting an alert action requires two name=value pairs. The first name=value pair is the event type.

The second name=value pair is the action you want to take for this event. For example, in the command:

omconfig system alertaction event=powersupply broadcast=true

the event is a power supply failure and the action is to broadcast a message to all Server

Administrator users.
