4.13.1 Displaying and outputting program-specific extended attributes

You can display in the events list and the Event Details window and output in event reports desired item names for program-specific extended attributes that are defined in the definition file for extended event attributes (extended file). This functionality is called the program-specific extended attribute display function.

You use the definition file for extended event attributes (extended file) to specify the program-specific extended attribute display function for each system (JP1/IM - Manager). When you use JP1/IM - View to connect to the JP1/IM - Manager on which the definition file for extended event attributes (extended file) has been set, the defined item names are displayed for extended attributes in the events list and the Event Details window. You can use the Preferences window to set the program-specific extended attribute items to be displayed or hidden in the events list for each user.

Figure 4‒90: Displaying program-specific extended attributes in JP1/IM - View

If you set a definition file for extended event attributes (extended file), the program-specific extended attributes that are displayed in the windows for specifying event conditions, such as view filters and event receiver filters, are displayed as item names (such as system name and server's role), not as attribute names (such as E.SYSTEM and E.ROLE). For details, see 4.13.2 Specifying program-specific extended attributes in event conditions.

You can also output these item names, not the attribute names, to CSV-format event reports in the same manner as for basic attributes and shared extended attributes on the JP1/IM - Manager in which the definition file for extended event attributes (extended file) has been set. For details, see 4.15 CSV output of information displayed in JP1/IM - View.
