General This tab manages basics for Event Definitions. It has the following fields: Event Name- A text identifier for the event. Notification OID- The object ID. Severity-The severity of any associated alarm. If a new alarm is a clearing severity, then it closes any existing alarm to which it correlates. Otherwise, if a new alarm severity does not match the existing severity then the existing alarm is closed and a new alarm opened for the new severity. MIB Name-The MIB with which this event is associated. Default Behavior- The options for behavior (Undefined, Alarm, Suppress, Reject). Alarm means: Process at the mediation server, generate event history and an alarm. Suppress means: Process at the mediation server and generate an event (not an alarm). Reject means: Reject at the mediation server (do not process) Propagation- The propagation behavior for the event (Default, Impacts subcomponents, Impacts top level, Not service effecting). Only service effecting alarms are propagated. By default, events are service-effecting, provided their severity is indeterminate or above. Select the propagation type from the pick list. An event definition configures "Impact Propagation" (distinct from "Alarm propagation") based on the event type. Does the event impact the overall device (Impacts top level), subcomponents (Impacts subcomponents), or just the correlated inventory entity (Default)? Event Definitions | Key Portlets 129
