Dialog Box -

General

Features

Properties Dialog boxes share several features: an Icon preview, a Label Icon, Channel
Settings, Negation, Counter, a Pin button, and a Descriptive String.

Icon Preview - The Icon Preview shows what the button currently looks like. If you make
changes to the Channel settings or the Icon Label, these changes will immediately
display in the Preview.

Icon Label - A text box for labeling the button. Whatever is typed here will appear on the
button.

Channels - These controls allow you to select the channel(s) that the analyzer should
search when it is looking for the event.

Counter - A counter tells the analyzer to search for x instances of the selected event. For
example, if you enter "10," the analyzer will count 10 instances of the selected event
before it performs whatever action you assign. There are only two counts available in the
hardware so if you try to assign more than two, you will get a warning.

Note: Counters can not be applied to events with Filter Actions. The maximum

counter value is 65,535.

Negation - Tells the hardware to match the opposite of the event. For example, if you
select NOT for Errors Event, the match will occur on Error types that are not checked. If
you select NOT for a SCSI command, the match will occur on any FCP_CMND except
for the selected one, and also on the selected one if the additional parameters do not
match.

Pin Button - Allows you to "pin" the Properties dialog box to the application so that it does
not go away when another object appears such as an event, state or action.

Description String - This area contains a textual description of the event.

Specific Event Settings - The largest part of the Event Properties dialog box. By
selecting one or more events from the list, you narrow the range of events for which the
analyzer searches.
