Alarm Command-Line Parameters
VMware provides command-line parameters that function as a substitute for the default alarm environment
variables. You can use these parameters when running a script as an alarm action for a condition, state, or
event alarm.
The command-line parameters enable you to pass alarm information without having to change an alarm script.
For example, use these parameters when you have an external program for which you do not have the source.
You can pass in the necessary data by using the substitution parameters, which take precedence over the
environment variables. You pass the parameters through the vSphere Client Alarm Actions Configuration
dialog box or on a command line.
Table 21-22
lists the command-line substitution parameters for scripts that run as alarm actions.
