Elements

The probe breaks event data down into tokens and parses them into elements. Elements are used to assign values to ObjectServer fields; the field values contain the event details in a form that the ObjectServer understands.

The following table describes the elements that the probe generates. Not all the elements described are generated for each event. The elements that the probe generates depend on the event type.

Table 1. Elements
Element name	Element description
`$ClearSystemId`	This element identifies the system where the alarms in the IRP Manager are cleared.
`$ClearUserId`	This element contains the name of the user who cleared an alarm.
`$AckState`	This element specifies the acknowledgement state of the alarm.
`$AckSystemId`	This element specifies the system ID of the IRP Manager processing the notification.
`$AckTime`	This element specifies the time at which the user acknowledged the alarm.
`$AckUserId`	This element specifies the last user who has changed the acknowledgement state.
`$AdditionalText`	This element specifies information about the network element from which the alarm originated.
`$AlarmId`	This element specifies the identification information of the alarm as it appears in the alarm list.
`$BackupObject`	This element specifies the distinguished Name (DN) of the backup object.
`$BackupUpStatus`	This element specifies whether the object has been backed up.
`$Comments`	This element contains comments about an alarm.
`$CorrelatedNotifications`	This element specifies the set of notifications to which this notification is considered to be correlated. This element is generated dynamically and its content is dependent on the IRPAgent.
`$EventTime`	This element specifies the time at which the event occurred.
`$ManagedObjectClass`	This element shows the managed object class of the network resource.
`$ManagedObjectInstance`	This element specifies the managed object instance of the network resource.
`$MonitoredAttributes`	This element contains the managed object attributes of the network resource.
`$NotificationID`	This element specifies the identification information of the notification.
`$PerceivedSeverity`	This element specifies the relative level of urgency for operator attention.
`$ProbableCause`	This element specifies further information about the probable cause of the alarm.
`$ProposedRepairActions`	This element specifies the proposed repair actions associated with the notification.
`$Reason`	This element indicates the reason that triggered the proposed repair action.
`$SecurityAlarmDetector`	This element indicates the security alarm detector for the device.
`$ServiceProvider`	This element contains the name of the service provider.
`$ServiceUser`	This element contains the name of the service user whose request for service led to the generation of a security alarm.
`$SpecificProblem`	This element specifies further information about the problem to which the notification relates.
`$StateChangeDefinition`	This element contains information about the state change.
`$SystemDN`	This element specifies the distinguished name (DN) used to identify the system.
`$ThresholdInfo`	This element specifies information about a threshold that has been crossed.
`$TrendIndication`	This element specifies how an observed condition has changed.
`$VendorSpecificAlarmType`	This element indicates the alarm type specific to the vendor.
`$AlarmListAllignmentRequirement`	This element indicates whether or not the alarm list requires alignment.
`$AlarmRaisedTime`	This element specifies the time at which the event was raised. The date is displayed in the format `mm/dd/yy`.
`$AlarmClearedTime`	This element specifies the time at which the event was cleared. The date is displayed in the format `mm/dd/yy`.
`$AlarmChangedTime`	This element specifies the time at which the event was changed. The date is displayed in the format `mm/dd/yy`.
`$AlarmSpecialStatusId`	This element specifies the special status ID of this alarm.
`$RootCauseIndicator`	This element indicates that this AlarmInformation is the root cause of the events captured by the notifications whose identifiers are in the related CorrelatedNotification instance.
