When an alarm event occurs, the CSS sends a description with the event
notification. Because a description is not generated automatically, you must
provide one. Use the description "description" command to provide a
description. The description variable is the description for the RMON event. Enter
a quoted text string with a maximum of 127 characters.
To provide a description for the event, enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# description "This event occurs when service
connections exceed 100"
To remove the description from the event, enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# no description
You must define the entity who configured this RMON event and is using the
resources assigned to it. Use the owner "owner_name" command to define the
owner. The owner_name variable is a quoted text string with a maximum of 127
characters. The owner for the event must be the same as the owner for the alarm.
To define the owner named Boston Tech Lab, enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# owner "Boston Tech Lab"
To remove the owner of the RMON event, enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# no owner
You must reassign an owner before you can reactivate the RMON event.
When an RMON event occurs, the event type determines where the CSS sends the
event notification.
A log event type designates that the event notification is made in a CSS log
•
location (for example, CSS disk log file or session). For information on
viewing log files, see the
To define the event as a log type (default), enter:
