Event notifications are received from the Domain Manager when the status of an event changes. In order to receive these notifications, you must subscribe to events in the Domain Manager.
The ASL format of the notification record is:
timestamp: integer fs
“NOTIFY” fs
class: word fs
instance: word fs
event: word fs
certainty: float fs
eol
Normally, the Domain Manager sends the following:
-
Single notification message when an event becomes active
-
Single clear message when the event is no longer active.
If an event corresponds to a root-cause problem, it is possible that the certainty of the diagnosis will change over time. If the diagnosis certainty changes, the Domain Manager generates another notification. Notifications of this type are streamed in a slightly different manner:
timestamp: integer fs “CERTAINTY_CHANGE” fs class: word fs instance: word fs event: word fs certainty: float fs eolThe subscriber front end normally discards certainty changes that are less than 1% (0.01). This behavior can be disabled.
When the Domain Manager clears an event, the ASL format of the notification record is:
timestamp: integer fs “CLEAR” fs class: word fs instance: word fs event: word fs eol
