Example 4: Creating an Event Filter
A filter causes the analyzer to filter in or filter out specified events from the recording. By
default, all events are filtered in. However, you might want to preserve recording memory
so that you can extend recording session time. To do so, you can filter out events that do
not interest you (or filter in only those events that interest you).
Note: Keep in mind that when you filter out events, they are not recorded in the
trace file. It is not the case that the events are present in the file but hidden.
The following example assumes you want recording to occur only if the analyzer detects
an MPI error.
Step 1 Click the New Event button. From the drop-down menu, select MPI
Errors to create an MPI Errors button in the Available Events area.
Step 2 Drag-and-drop the MPI Error button into the first cell in the Main Display
area.
Step 3 Right-click in the Action box to the right of the MPI Error button. The
Action pop-up menu appears (Figure 12.35).
