The Command response automatically executes a single command on any Vantage-managed resource or Group of resources, regardless of platform.
The figure below is the Command Definition dialog.
Refer to Using Vantage Dialogs to learn about Vantage dialogs. Each control on the dialog is explained in the text that follows.
Send Command:
This control is used to specify the command to be executed when the event is detected. This control can contain variables or a combination of a command and variables. Tokens from the event's context string are passed to the command file in variables designated as $1, $2, etc. Click the control and type a command or variable, as appropriate.
To Resource / Group:
This control allows selection of the resource or group on which the command is to be executed. An event can be detected on any one of a Group of resources. If the command should only be sent back to the resource on which the event was detected, then select '[Originating Resource]'. Click to select the resource or group name.
Click OK when all controls are as desired. Click the Add button on the Event Definition dialog to add the event.
You must Distribute Events when finished adding or modifying an event for the new event to be detected.
