Special events handling

The following special error conditions are examples of events that are categorized as Special
Events Handling events, a separate category that appears in the Name list of the Event Actions
dialog box. All pre-selected events are SNMP traps.

can add or edit any event action and mark the action as a special event for special events handling
using the Actions pane of the Edit Event Action dialog box.
