Modifying an Event Subscription Using the CLI
To modify an event subscription using CLI, enter the following command at the HP-UX prompt:
# evweb subscribe -M -n<subscription name> -v<comma separated event
category names> -t <E-mail address>
Where:
-M
is an option used to modify event subscriptions.
-n
is a switch used to specify a name for an event.
-v
is a switch used to specify the category of an event.
-t
is a switch used to specify the location (email address or Event Archive) to store an event.
A message stating that the execution of the evweb subscribe command was successful is
displayed on the screen.
NOTE: The -n switch is mandatory.
You can also use the following switches with the -M option:
• (-e [eq\ne\le\ge\bw] [:] <severity level1>[,<severity level2>])
• (-v <comma separated event category names>)
• (-i <comma separated EventID>)
• (-t (archive\email) [<handler properties>])
• -r
To modify an event subscription, you must specify the criteria and the location. Following are
the ways in which you can modify an event subscription:
• If you do not specify the -r option and the location, the current location is retained and the
subscription criteria are updated.
• If you specify the -r option but not the location, the current location is removed and only
the subscription criteria is updated.
• If you specify both subscription criteria and location, both of them are updated.
• If you specify the location but not the criteria, the location is updated but the original criteria
is retained.
For more information on creating event subscriptions using the CLI, see evweb_subscribe(1).
