Adding a pseudo event on the resolving policy
When a down event occurs, a resolving policy waits for a specified duration to see if the events
remain in that state. If the event does remain in the Down state, a resolving pseudo event is
generated by the Event Processor.
The following two-part procedure uses both the Add Pseudo Events dialog box and the Add Event
Actions dialog box to create an event action with the resolving policy.
1. Select Monitor > Event Processing > Pseudo Events.
The Pseudo Events dialog box displays.
2. Click Add.
The Identification pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.
3. Enter a name and description for the pseudo event, and click the Enabled check box to enable
the event.
4. Click Next.
The Policy pane of the Add Pseudo Event dialog box displays.
5. Click the Resolve button, and then enter the duration of time the Event Processor will wait
before generating the pseudo event. Specify the resolve time in minutes or hours.
