1. The explanation of the event. In some cases, this data field contains a
recommended action to rectify a problem.
2. The Formatted Message section.
3. The Event Data Items section, which lists all the standard data
items contained in the event. For description of each of these items,
see EvmEvent ()
The items shown here are typical of many events. However, some of
these may be missing, or occasionally you may see additional items.
4. The Format data item is almost the same as the content of the
Formatted Message data item, but it includes a reference to a
variable called _catname, indicated by the $ symbol preceding it.
5. The Variable Items section, which contains the value of the domain
variable.
For more information on how to select events for detailed display, see
“Using the Event-Id to Select Events for Detailed Display” on page 57.
You can use the evmshow -x command to display the explanation alone.
Alternatively, use the -x and -t options together to obtain a summary of
the event followed by its explanation. For example:
# cat my_events | evmshow -x -t "@timestamp [@priority] @@" |
