Triggers

If you have events that always correspond to the same runbook you can create a trigger and link the event with the runbook. Triggers can run with manual and automated runbooks. If the runbook is a manual or semi-automated runbook, the operator must complete the parameter values. If the runbook is fully automated, the trigger runs with pre-defined values. The operator does not even notice that the runbook was executed.

You must install Netcool/Impact to run the trigger service. For more information, see Configuring Netcool/Impact to link events to runbooks.
