MODEL developers can add information to a problem in order to emphasize events that occur because of a problem. The getExplains() function returns a list of these events. The syntax is as follows:
getExplains(<classname>,<instancename>,<eventname>,[<oneHop>])
The <oneHop> parameter is optional. If it is omitted or passed as FALSE, the full list of problems that explains <eventname>, whether directly or indirectly, is returned. If it is passed as TRUE, only those problems that directly list <eventname> among the events that they explain are returned.
