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.
