Hi Craig,
So this is the output format from an alert that was generated by a
monitoring script?
How are the scripts invoked that look for a problem (i.e., that generate
this output)?
Are they configurable - can they take parameters, etc?
Is there any way to tell what parameters they expect/require?
Thanks for the info!
