Defining Automated Actions
You can create automated actions to be executed automatically whenever Syslog Analyzer receives a
specific message type.
When you select Resource Manager Essentials > Tools > Syslog > Automated Actions, a list of
automated actions appears in the dialog box on the Automated Actions page. Of these, there are two
system-defined automated actions (the rest are user-defined). The system-defined automated actions are:
• Inventory Fetch—To fetch inventory from the device.
• Config Fetch—To fetch configuration from the device.
You can edit these system-defined automated actions, but you cannot delete them. These actions are
enabled by default. You can choose to disable them by selecting them and clicking Enable/Disable.
Config Fetch might loop if SYS-6-CFG_CHG-*SNMP* message is received from a Catalyst operating
system device. You can then edit Config Fetch automated action and you can delete
SYS-6-CFG_CHG-*SNMP* message type. For more details, see
Deleting a Message Type.
In the Automated Actions dialog box, you can choose whether to include interfaces of selected devices
or not.
The columns in the Automated Actions dialog box are:

The Job Description field is enabled only if you have selected an option other than Immediate in
the Run Type field. This is a mandatory field. Accepts alpahnumeric characters.
E-mail Enter the e-mail ID of the user who should be notified when the report is generated. You can enter
more than one e-mail ID, separated by commas.
