Default Monitoring Requests
A set of default monitoring requests are created for each hardware event monitor. These default requests
provide a complete level of monitoring and protection for the hardware resources under the control of the
monitor. The default monitoring requests listed in Table 2-13 on page 43 are used for all hardware event
monitors.
NOTE When to Modify the Default Monitoring Requests
You can use the default monitoring requests provided and achieve a complete level of
protection. However, the default monitoring requests provide a limited number of notification
options. By modifying or adding new monitoring requests, you gain greater control over what
notification methods are used to alert you when events occur. You can add new notification
methods or remove those that may not be required. Creating custom monitoring requests also
allows you to manage which severity levels you want reported.
