Adding a pseudo event on the escalation policy
Use the escalation policy to be notified if a critical event occurs on a product, port, or system. When
the event occurs, the escalation policy waits for a duration of time to see if the event remains in
that state. If it does, then the specified action in the definition is performed.
The following two-part procedure uses both the Identification pane of the Add Pseudo Events dialog
box and the Add Event Actions dialog box to create an event action with the escalation policy.
To add a pseudo event definition to the escalation policy, complete the following steps.
1. Select Monitor > Event Processing > Pseudo Events.
The Pseudo Events dialog box, shown in
Figure 757
, displays.
2. Click Add.
The Identification pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.
3. Enter a name for the pseudo event.
4. Select the Enabled check box to enable the event, and click Next.
The Policy pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.
5. Click the Escalation button, and then enter the duration of time the Event Processor will wait
before generating the pseudo event. Specify the escalation time in minutes or seconds.
6. Click Next.
The Events pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.
7. Select a critical event, such as LinkDown, and click the right arrow button to move it to the
Selected Down Trap list.
8. Select a remediation event, such as LinkUp, and click the right arrow button to move it to the
Selected Up Trap list.
9. Click Next to advance to the Summary pane.
10. Click Finish to complete the pseudo event configuration.
