Creating a query for cleared events
An event list must be created in HP SIM that displays the “cleared” events that have been forwarded to
Service Desk. This list is then used as part of an action on event definition to update incidents in Service
Desk that have been cleared in SIM.
For example, the user can create an event list for forwarding events to Service Desk (Service Desk Event
Forward) and an event list to show the forwarded events that have been cleared (Service Desk Event
Cleared).
