Creating your file...
You can associate an alert with your script so that the script is executed when an alert is raised for an event in Unified Manager. You can use the scripts to resolve issues with storage objects or identify which storage objects are generating the events.
When an alert is generated for an event in Unified Manager, an alert email is sent to the specified recipients. If you have associated an alert with a script, the script is executed. You can get the details of the arguments passed to the script from the alert email.
The script uses the following arguments for execution:
-
-
eventID
-
-
eventName
-
-
eventSeverity
-
-
eventSourceID
-
-
eventSourceName
-
-
eventSourceType
-
-
eventState
-
-
eventArgs
You can use the arguments in your scripts and gather related event information or modify storage objects.
Example for obtaining arguments from scripts
print "$ARGV[0] : $ARGV[1]\n" print "$ARGV[7] : $ARGV[8]\n"
When an alert is generated, this script is executed and the following output is displayed:
-eventID : 290 -eventSourceID : 4138
