Triggers

The Trigger Facility can be used to automatically run specified command scripts when particular triggers are activated. When a trigger is activated by an event, global parameters and parameters specific to the event are passed to the script that is run. For a full description of the Trigger Facility, see the Trigger Facility chapter in the Rapier Switch Software Reference.

The switch can generate triggers to activate scripts when a fibre uplink port loses or gains coherent light. To create or modify a switch trigger, use the commands:

CREATE TRIGGER=trigger-idMODULE=SWITCH EVENT={LIGHTOFFLIGHTON} PORT=port [AFTER=hh:mm] [BEFORE=hh:mm] [DATE=dateDAYS=day-list] [NAME=name] [REPEAT={YESNOONCEFOREVERcount}] [SCRIPT=filename...] [STATE={ENABLEDDISABLED}] [TEST={YESNOONOFF}]

SET TRIGGER=trigger-idPORTS={port-listALL} [AFTER=hh:mm] [BEFORE=hh:mm] [DATE=dateDAYS=day-list] [NAME=name] [REPEAT={YESNOONCEFOREVERcount}] [TEST={YESNOONOFF}]

The following sections list the events that may be specified for the EVENT parameter, the parameters that may be specified as module-specific-parameters, and the arguments passed to the script activated by the trigger.
