IMPORTANT: The subscription criteria is not copied when you copy an HP Advised event
subscription. Therefore, ensure that you specify the subscription criteria in the Copy and create
subscription page.
NOTE: It is mandatory to specify a unique name in the Subscription name.
5. Select Create on the Copy and create subscription page.
Evweb creates the event subscription and displays a confirmation message.
6. Click OK on the confirmation message window.
NOTE: There is no CLI equivalent for this action. The Copy and create subscription feature
is available only on the HP SMH GUI.
For more information on creating an event subscription by copying an existing event subscription
using the HP SMH GUI, select Help on the action pane of the Copy and create subscription page.
Modifying Evweb event subscriptions
You can modify an event subscription by modifying the criteria and location. However, the fields
that you are allowed to modify depend on the type of event subscription you select. You can modify
more than one subscription at a time.
NOTE: The HP Known event subscriptions are classified as HP Advised and Admin Defined.
In HP Advised event subscriptions, the events are stored in the event archive by default. The default
location of the events cannot be modified. However, you can direct the events to your e-mail
address or to the syslog. You cannot change any other subscription criteria.
In Admin Defined event subscriptions, the events are stored in the event archive by default. The
default location of the events can be modified. You can store events in the Event Archive, in syslog,
or direct them to your e-mail address, or do all. You cannot change any other subscription criteria.
In event subscriptions created using Evweb, you can change all criteria except the name of the
subscription.
You can modify an event subscription in the following ways:
• Modify a single event subscription.
You can modify a single event subscription using the modify feature by selecting the event
subscription from the event subscription table.
• Modify similar criteria in multiple event subscriptions.
You can modify similar criteria in multiple event subscriptions by using the Copy and modify
subscription feature.
