  2. Click on "Add New Reaction" and select the type of reactions you want to define: email, custom, numerical page, restart, or SNMP trap.
  3. Fill out the form.

• Define an Event that the reaction will be applied to. Events will launch your predefined reactions when conditions you define are met. You can assign up to 2 reactions per event.
  1. In Nodes module, click on the events link in the Tools menu
  2. Click on "Add New Event" button and fill out the form.
     Click here to learn more about events.

• Apply this event to your node(s):
  1. In the event page, click on the “Apply Event” button which is the first button to the left of the event you want to apply
  2. Select your node(s) from the list
  3. Click “Apply”

Note: you can also apply a predefined event to a node by clicking on the edit button next to the node in the Nodes page.
