Event triggers

Event triggers monitor system events and fire when the specified conditions exist. You can define the

phrases (rows) and their logical relationships. The phrases filter all the event context properties to

identify those events that you want to trigger the event.
Event triggers also allow you to set time limits so that the trigger occurs only if the event happens

within a certain time and date range. For example, you can specify that all offline events between 5

p.m. and 8 a.m. trigger e-mail message and log actions to take place.

Schedule triggers

Schedule triggers monitor the system clock and fire when the specified time and date conditions are

met.
Schedule triggers can be set to fire:

Daily

Weekly

Monthly

One time only

Hourly

CAUTION:

Once you have chosen a schedule type and added the first phrase, do not change

types or you can lose your work.

The following actions are possible:
