-up 
is the event number to use for the up event, which is triggered when the 
objective comparison returns to normal after a failure. The number 
specified must be in the range 6000 through 9999. Event number 4001 is 
used when this is not specified. The minus sign must precede the up event 
number even if the down event number is not specified. The ASAP EMS 
event template for the up event is not applied when custom up events are 
defined. 
For escalating and de-escalating goals the up event is written when the 
alert level returns to normal. 
Up event specifications are not supported for Boolean goals. 
STATUS 
When events are turned on (using SET OBJECTIVESEVENT ON), status 
changes in ASAP system entities default to generate one critical EMS event. 
The STATUS attribute specifies changes to the default behavior for system 
entities. Use STATUS with ASAP user-defined entities to define all event 
behavior for status changes. 
NOEMS 
Used only with the STATUS attribute. NOEMS turns off automatic event 
generation for status changes in ASAP system entities. 
action 
ACTION string | rule [WAIT wait] [NOREPEAT] 
string 
is an action string where the first word in the string is a command 
interpreter name such as TACL, SCF, or FUP, and the remainder of the 
string represents the command to be executed by that command 
interpreter. 
The string must be enclosed in double quotation marks, and ASAP 
converts any single quotes found within a string to double quotes. For 
example, ACTION "FUP SECURE <#OBJECT>, '<#GOAL>'" becomes 
FUP SECURE <#OBJECT>, "<#GOAL>" when processed by the ASAP 
Action server. 
Whenever these tokens are contained in a string, the tokens in the string 
are replaced with values associated with the objective, and the resulting 
command is executed: 
<#ENTITY> 
The entity name
