Class Definition Statement File

CDS files are used by an adapter to map incoming raw events to a particular class and to define event attributes before forwarding the event to the event server.

No alterations to this file are necessary to use an adapter unless you alter the corresponding .fmt file (if any). If any event definition is changed in a CDS file, the corresponding event class definition in the BAROC file might need changing as well. Event definition content and syntax are discussed in the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console Rule Builder’s Guide.

See Appendix C, “Class Definition Statement File Reference” on page 155 for details about CDS files.

Example

The following example shows a CDS file:

#

#Default attribute values

MAP_DEFAULT source = SNMP; sub_source = NET;

#forwarding_agent = $SOURCE_ADDR; origin = $AGENT_ADDR; adapter_host = $ADAPTER_HOST;

END
