Alarm Reaction Scripts
Alarm Reaction Scripts identify what the Management Layer must do when alarms occur in, or are cleared from, the system. They are Script objects
of type Alarm Reaction, and are created in the same way as other Scripts.
The Management Layer supports the following types of Alarm Reaction Scripts:
- Shutdown of a specified application.
- Startup of a specified application.
- Restart of the application that reported the alarm.
- Startup of a specified solution.
- Sending an e-mail message with information about the alarm to specified Internet addresses. You can
customize the e-mail with specific details about the alarm.
- Switchover of operations from the application that reported the alarm to its backup application, for applications running in primary mode,
backup mode, or regardless of the mode.
- Sending an SNMP trap with detailed information about the alarm to a general-purpose network management system.
- Execution of an operating system command.
Note: For a description of the OS commands you can specify in an Alarm Reaction Script, refer to the Framework
Management Layer User's Guide.
- Changing a configuration option value for the specified application or for the application that reported the alarm.
