Filter rules can be configured to only be active after a system has finished booting (when the uptime > 5 minutes), which can reduce unnecessary alerts that are only generated during the boot process. The boot behavior option supports three different settings:
1. Always Active
The filter is always active, regardless of whether the system is booting or not. This is the default.
2. Only During Boot
The filter is only active during system boot.
3. Only After Boot
The filter is only active after the system has finished booting.
A filter that is only active during the boot process can be useful to exclude certain alerts that are only generated during the boot process.
A filter that is only active after the boot process has completed will not alert on potential noise that is generated during the boot process. |
