Also used to determine which events a specific correlation rule will apply to.(2) In Tivoli NetView, a logical expression of criteria that determines which events are forwarded to the application program that registers the event filter with the event sieve agent.(3) In the Tivoli Enterprise Console product, the criteria that must be met by an event before a rule action is executed.
In a Tivoli environment, software that determines which events are forwarded to a specified destination. Filtering events helps to reduce network traffic.
