Writing Event Management macros
You can write macros for Event Management to add relevant data to the action phrases. The
following actions allow macros:
• E-mail
• Launch
• Log
• Message
When you right-click near the cursor in a text area, a menu of the context property sets appears.
Select one of the choices to see a list of the available context properties. Select one of the properties
to insert a bracketed macro at the cursor.
When the trigger fires, the values for the context properties that you selected are inserted into the
text in place of the macro. Write the text in such a way that you know what the value is since the
property name is not inserted along with the value. Example: “The device labeled
${PROPlabel} has come back online. Its Node Name is ${PROPnodename}”.
NOTE: Actions that are triggered by a schedule trigger do not have access to Device and Event
properties since no device is directly involved in triggering the policy.
Table 43 describes event context properties.
Trap Forwarding Off Specifies whether trap forwarding is enabled
Region Region of the world where the user is located
Time Zone User’s time zone
