ƒ Comment. This text area is for user notes. It can explain what the rule is
trying to do, and may be especially useful if the search criteria are obscure or
confusing. This is set from the Event Rule window.
ƒ Actions. The list of actions to perform when the rule is triggered.
Refer to the sections describing the specific rule types later in this chapter for
detailed information.
Common Action Fields
To modify a rule action or rule event, from the MCC Master Window, select the
Administration menu—Configuration:Event Editor option. From the Event
Editor window, select one of the tabs and select an action or event to modify,
then click the Modify button.
All actions have these fields in common:
ƒ Action. This field indicates the type of action from the list of available
actions to be performed.
ƒ Log Action. Log actions are saved to the /user/ics/log/event.log file.
ƒ Status. Active, Simulated, or Inactive. This is similar to the Status field for
event rules.
-
Active means to perform the action normally.
-
Simulated means log the action, but do not actually perform it.
-
Inactive means to skip the action.
ƒ Split Words By. This field is only available for actions associated with
Console Message rules. When performing parameter substitution, a word from
the input message can be specified. Normally, words are delimited by white
space—tabs and spaces. However, alternate delimiters can be substituted.
