A.2 Extended attributes

SEVERITY

Event level

This attribute indicates the severity of the event. The possible event levels are as follows:

Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Notice, Information, and Debug.

For details about event levels (severity), see Table A-3 Event levels.

USER_NAME

User name

This attribute indicates the name of the user who is executing the job.

PRODUCT_NAME

Product name

This attribute indicates the product name. The value of this attribute consists of alphanumeric strings separated by a slant (/). The value must have either of the following formats and must be unique for each company:

• /company-name/series-name/product-name

• /company-name/product-name

Note also that you cannot use HITACHI, because as a company name it is a reserved word.

OBJECT_TYPE

Object type

This attribute indicates the object type. As the value of this attribute, specify the type of the event-originating object. In the initial status, the object types listed below are provided. You may want to select or search JP1 events by specifying these object types in event filters, so you should assign the same object type to the JP1 events that have the same meaning.

If you want to add new object types, create the definition file for object types and specify unique object types in the file.

• JOB

• JOBNET

• ACTION

• ACTIONFLOW

• PRINTJOB

• PRINTQUEUE

• PRINTER

• BATCHQUEUE

• PIPEQUEUE

• JOBBOX

• LOGFILE

• LINK (for reporting events from a lower communication layer)

• SERVICE (e.g., daemon process)

• PRODUCT (for reporting other program-specific events)

• CONFIGRATION

• SERVER

• BACKUP

• RESTORE

• MEDIA

OBJECT_NAME

Object name

This attribute specifies the object name. As the value of this attribute, specify a name that identifies the type of the object. For example, if the object type is JOB, you may assign the job name.

ROOT_OBJECT_TYPE

Root object type

This attribute specifies the root object type. As the value of this attribute, specify the parent object type. This attribute is effective when objects have a hierarchical structure. For example, if the object type is JOB, the root object type is JOBNET. If the root object type does not exist, specify the same value as the object type. In the initial status, the same value as the object type is defined.

ROOT_OBJECT_NAME

Root object name

This attribute specifies the root object name. Specify a name that identifies the root object type. For example, specify a jobnet name.

OBJECT_ID

Object ID

A combination of this attribute and the PRODUCT_NAME attribute specifies a character string that uniquely identifies the object instance in the integrated system. The format of an object ID depends on the other products. This information is used to open the monitor of a product from the Tool Launcher window of JP1/IM.

OCCURRENCE

Occurrence

This attribute specifies an object-specific occurrence that causes the event to occur. In the initial status, the occurrences listed below are provided. You can specify an occurrence and an object type in a filter to select a specific event for a specific object.

ACTIVE

The object became active.

INACTIVE

The object became inactive.

START

The object started.

END

The object terminated.

NOTSTART

The object failed to start.

CANCEL

The object was canceled.

LATESTART

Exceeded the scheduled start time.

LATEEND

Exceeded the scheduled end time.

SUBMIT

The object was submitted.

UNSUBMIT

Submitting the object was canceled.

ENQUEUE

The object was added to the queue.

DEQUEUE

The object was removed from the queue.

PAUSE

The object paused.

RELEASE

The object stopped pausing.

RESTART

The object restarted.

CREATE

The object was created.

DELETE

The object was deleted.

MODIFY

The object was modified.

RETRY

The object started a retry.

STOP

The object stopped.

MOVE

The object was moved.

COPY

The object was copied.

NOTICE

The object notified the operator.

REPLY

The object received a reply.

CONNECT

The object was connected.

DISCONNECT

The object was disconnected.

EXCEPTION

An exception occurred.

START_TIME

Start time

This attribute indicates the execution start or restart time. As the value of this attribute, specify the number of seconds from 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970. You can specify this attribute only when the OCCURRENCE attribute is START, RESTART, PAUSE, RELEASE, or END.

END_TIME

End time

This attribute indicates the time to end execution. As the value of this attribute, specify the number of seconds from 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970. You can specify this attribute only when the OCCURRENCE attribute is END.

RESULT_CODE

Result code

This attribute indicates a termination code consisting of decimal numbers. You can specify this attribute only when the OCCURRENCE attribute is END.

PLATFORM^#

Platform type

This attribute indicates the platform type. Specify a character string for this attribute to specify the platform type in the definition file for extended event attributes or in the definition file for opening monitor windows. If you do not specify this attribute, base is used by default.

ACTION_VERSION^#

Version information

This attribute indicates the version used for opening the monitor window. This attribute is necessary when the monitor windows to open differ depending on the version. If you do not specify this attribute, do not specify a version in the definition file for opening monitor windows.
