Adding a pseudo event on the resolving policy

When a down event occurs, a resolving policy waits for a specified duration to see if the event remains in that state by checking if an up event occurs. If an up event occurs, a resolving pseudo event is generated by the Event Processor.

The following two-part procedure uses both the Add Pseudo Events dialog box and the Add Event Actions dialog box to create an event action with the resolving policy.

To add a pseudo event definition to the resolving policy, complete the following steps.

1.Select Monitor > Event Processing > Pseudo Events. The Pseudo Events dialog box displays.

2.Click Add.

The Identification pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.

3.Enter a name for the pseudo event, and select the Enabled check box to enable the event.

4.Click Next.

The Policy pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.

5.Click the Resolve button, and then enter the duration of time the Event Processor will wait before generating the pseudo event. Specify the resolve time in minutes or seconds.

6.Click Next.

The Events pane of the Add Pseudo Event Events 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 Finish to complete the pseudo event configuration.

Now, you must create a new event action definition using the Add Event Actions dialog box.
