5.3.4 Creating a test event action plan in IBM Director Once you have configured the Remote Supervisor Adapter to communicate with IBM Director, we recommend that you test the functionality to ensure proper communication. For more information on alerts and event management in IBM Director, see the IBM Redbook Implementing Systems Management Solutions using IBM Director, SG24-6188. To verify the functionality of the Remote Supervisor Adapter in the x455, perform the following steps: 1. Launch the IBM Director Console, either directly from the IBM Director Server system or from a workstation with the IBM Director Console installed. 2. Click the Event Action Plan Builder icon located in the IBM Director Console. 3. The Event Action Plan Builder window will appear. Right-click Event Action Plan in the left-hand pane and select New to create a new plan. 4. Provide a descriptive name for your plan and click OK. For our testing, we entered RSA Test. Figure 5-8 New event action plan 5. Once you click OK, your new event action plan will appear in the left-hand pane under Event Action Plans. 6. In the middle pane, click the blue bullet next to Simple Event Filter. A menu tree will drop down showing all pre-defined event filters created during installation of IBM Director. Click and drag All Events to the event action plan you just created. This will add the filter to the action plan. The All Events filter will cause any event generated by the system to be reported to IBM Director, and is good for testing. For production, you may wish to limit the events sent to IBM Director.
