Setup Guide

Version Description
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the S4810, S4820T, Z9000, and MXL Switch.
Usage Information
The maximum number of events you can congure is 20. The maximum number of allowed tag patterns in a log
event trigger is three. The tags of the log events must be an exact comparison. The three tags work in a logical OR
operation format (match with any one of the tags occurs).
NOTE: Before deleting a trigger event, you MUST unlink the script from the event.
If you use the caret symbol (^) as a pattern, the Dell EMC Networking OS generates blank space as the starting
character of the SYSLOG. The special character $ is not allowed to use in regular expressions, as the last word in
the SYSLOG is line feed.
NOTE: The time-events schedule time takes eect once after the device congures the trigger-event
(event). A single trigger event can contain combinations of interval, weekday, month, and month day.
Related Command script event-handler — Allows you to provide mapping between the scripts and trigger events.

ex "Major alarm" "Minor alarm"

DellEMC(conf)# script trigger-event Port_State_Event log-event tag tag-regex
