Initial Files
Each adapter comes with an initial set of files that provides out-of-the-box support
for a predefined set of events. The set of files is composed of the following files:
v
BAROC file
v
CDS file
v
For the adapters on NetWare, OS/2, UNIX, Windows, and Windows NT: format
file
By modifying these files, a system administrator can add, modify, and specialize
classes of events.
The number of different events an adapter can receive is infinite. Therefore, the
major objective of the initial files provided with an adapter is not to be exhaustive,
but essentially to support the most common type of events handled by this adapter
(for example, SNMP generic traps), as well as to provide enough examples to the
system administrator on which to build new event definitions.
The initial supported events for the adapters are described in each adapter chapter
later in this guide.
