There is no way today in DFM to disable a particular event or monitor for a specific filer.
Though disabling complete monitoring of specific filer/vfiler can be done.(ie ignored.)
As suggested by kjag, changing the severity of the event is one way, but it affect globally on all filers and not just the one you like to.
As said by sinhaa, you will get this event only once, as we keep generating such events only when the state changes, from up to down or vice versa.Ack for the first time and forget.
Third, way is to delete the filer or vfiler from dfm using dfm filer delete or dfm vfiler delete cli.
But this will stop monitoring for the entire filer or vfiler, all events and even discovery of new volumes or qtrees on those filer or vfiler.
Hope now you know when to use what.
If you would like to ignore false alerts from a filer/vfiler which is scheduled for maintenance, then go with third approach.
Once maintenance is over re-add the filer/vfiler using dfm filer add or vfiler add.Untill its readded no events /discovery happens for that filer/vfiler.
