 The SEL Logger daemon handles all requests to add new IPMI SEL records to the
 journal. SEL records stored in the journal are identified by the standard
 **MESSAGE_ID** metadata. Other metadata fields are used to store event-specific
 information for each record.

+## Event Monitoring
 
 The SEL Logger daemon can be configured to watch for specific types of events
 and automatically log SEL records for them.
 
 As an example, the SEL Logger has a "threshold event monitor" which implements a
 D-Bus match for any "PropertiesChanged" event on the
-"xyz.openbmc_project.Sensor.Threshold" interface. The handler then checks for

 any new threshold events and logs SEL records accordingly.
