System Status Display Commands

These commands control how the system status dialog displays information.  These commands are in addition to the generic dialog commands , which can also be applied to the system status dialog.

 -SetSystemStatusMessageFilter <Message Type> <Value> 
This command changes the messages that are visible in the System Status Dialog's message history.   All messages are passed through the message filters before being sent to the message history.  If the message makes it through the filters, it will be displayed in the message history.  Changes in the filter settings will have no effect on messages that have already been through the filtering process.

Example :  -SetSystemStatusMessageFilter Fatal On
Default:
Message Type Value
Fatal On
Error On
Warning On
Notice Off
Data Off
Usage:  This command can be used at any time.
Arguments
Message Type
Specifies the message filter to be set is the system status dialog.  This must be one of the following message type keywords:
  1. Fatal:  All messages tagged as FATAL will be affected.  Fatal messages are unrecoverable, and __prod_name should be restarted.
  2. Error:   All messages tagged as ERROR will be affected.  Error messages are for errors in commands, incorrect keywords or values, or intermittent problems with a portion of the system 
  3. Warning:   All messages tagged as WARNING will be affected.  Warning messages indicate that something happened out of the ordinary, but was handled by __prod_name.
  4. Notice:   All messages tagged as NOTICE will be affected.  Notices provide status information about __prod_name.  These messages are purely informational.
  5. Data:   All messages tagged as DATA will be affected.  Data messages are not generated by __prod_name.  These message types can be used to log information to the log file.  However, if you will use these messages for analysis, you would be better off posting an event with the message as the event string.
Value The message filters can be in one of the following states:
  1. On:  If a message type has the filter On, __prod_name will display messages of that type in the System Status Dialog.
  2. Off:   If a message type has the filter Off, __prod_name will hide messages of that type from the System Status Dialog.
