System Entity Specifics
System entities that have one or more attributes with an associated StatePair attribute
support DOTs. System entity attributes are defined in the file
$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.ASAP3SYS. Any modifications to this file might cause incorrect
entity objectives records to be written to the ASAP objectives database.
To get help about which entity attributes can be ranked, use the SHOW command. For
example:
SHOW FILE

An attribute defined with StatePair YES in the EDL definition is immediately followed
by its associated state attribute. For example, ErrorState is the associated state for the
Error attribute. When StatePair is true, you can set objectives on the attribute. ASAP
places the state from the objectives comparison into the associated state attribute.
