Pass the Message Text from an Event to a command

[Maurice Skubski_1]

Hi,

i want to do an automatic action on an Event doing following:
- give the Text and all inforamtion to the script (batch)
- use the information to generate an opcmsg (to send it to OVO)

I need the Variables for:
- Message Text
- Server
- Severity
- IP Address
- ..

Has anyboday made a customer command for this before? if yes, please let me know how to do it.

thanx
ms

I always forget where this is documented, so I created a custom command that calls the 'set' command and ties it to an event handler. Results from sending a test trap below (edited to omit all but the important stuff):

Hi,
and dou you have an example script/batch how i can use the variables and pass them to the script? i'm new in SIM. regards ms

[Winfried Baur]

When the Event fires execute a custom Command where you start a Batch File ex. MYBATCH.BAT. As Variables use %DEVICENAME%
In your MYBATCH.BAT write echo %1 and you schold see the servername
