Working with Events › Active Events

Active Events

After an Event is defined on the server, it becomes active.

With scheduled Events, the server schedules them based on their schedule criteria. When you view a scheduled Event, the server displays the Event's next scheduled time.

With monitor Events, the agent monitoring the trigger criteria begins monitoring immediately.

With manual Events (Events without scheduling or trigger criteria), you can trigger them at any time or issue commands against them to prevent them from triggering.

You can issue commands against Events to do the following:

• Trigger the Event manually.
• Bypass and unbypass the next scheduled execution or future scheduled execution of an Event (scheduled and manual Events only).
• Hold an Event, preventing the Event from triggering until you release it.
• Suspend an Event, postponing the Event from triggering until you resume it.
• Unquiesce an Event, releasing the scheduled Event from a quiesced state. However, the missed executions are not triggered.

Note: To run commands against Events, you require the appropriate security permissions. For more information, contact your administrator.
