Use the Event Definition Format to create an XML file that defines the event and alarm codes used to add external events to ICPAM. This file also defines the category for the events and is imported into ICPAM to create the codes.
Example
In the following XML example:
· The concatenation rule is: AE.<logcode_prefix>_<logcode>
· Event category: AE.Cisco_VSM
· The log codes for the category are: AE.VS_VSM_Sample1 and AE.VS_VSM_Sample2
<appext_eventdefns
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<appext_entry appname="Cisco_VSM" logcode_prefix="VS">
<ext_event_defn logcode="VSM_Sample1"
priority="10"
description="VSM Sample Event-1"/>
<ext_event_defn logcode="VSM_Sample2"
priority="10"
description="VSM Sample Event-2"
isAlarm="true"/>
</appext_entry>
</appext_eventdefns>
The file is saved with the .xml extension. For example: SampleExtEventDefns.xml.
