API Rules

For each automation event presented by CA MIM, the interface triggers an )API rule, and supplies data to the rule in the form of environmental variables. Each type of event has an associated set of variable names. Some variable names are common, regardless of the automation event while other variable names are specific to the automation event. For more API information, see the chapter “Using the Application Programming Interface”.

Important! Unless otherwise noted, all of the variables are a data type of character and are read-only variables; therefore, a CA OPS/MVS rule program cannot store data into these variables. An attempt to alter the content of read-only variables will result in a CA OPS/MVS rule program failure.
