Examples of Matching Triggers and Transitions

This section presents a number of examples of triggers and transitions that do and do not match.

Example 1

A trigger named highLoad with the subobject system.0 and the node hp124 would prompt the following transitions:

• Name: highLoad
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: ip.0
  Node: hp124
  Property: hpws, which is contained in hp124's property group
• Name: highLoad
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: Unassigned (transition from Ground)
  Node: Unassigned (transition from Ground)
  Property: NO_PROP
• Name: highLoad
  Scope: Node
  Subobject: Irrelevant
  Node: hp124
  Property: hpws, which is contained in hp124's property group

  The highLoad trigger would not prompt the following transition:

• Name: highLoad
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: ifEntry.2
  Node: hp124
  Property: hpws, which is contained in hp124's property group

  The trigger and transition fail the subobject rule.

Example 2

A trigger named lowSpace with the subobject $ANY, the node hp124, and the property includeMe (which is contained in hp124's property group) would prompt the following transitions:

• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: ifEntry.2
  Node: hp124
  Property: includeMeToo, which is contained in hp124's property group
• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Node
  Subobject: Irrelevant
  Node: hp124
  Property: NO_PROP
• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: system.0
  Node: hp124
  Property: NO_PROP

The lowSpace trigger would not prompt the following transitions:

• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Enterprise
  Subobject: Irrelevant
  Node: Irrelevant
  Property: hpws, which is contained in hp124's property group

  The trigger and transition fail the property rule.

• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: ifEntry.2
  Node: hp125
  Property: includeMe

  The trigger and transition fail the node rule.

• Name: lowSpace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: Unassigned (transition from Ground)
  Node: Unassigned (transition from Ground)
  Property: NO_PROP

  The trigger and transition fail the subobject rule.

Example 3

A trigger named lowSpace with the subobject $NULL, the node $ANY, and the property NO_PROP would prompt the following transitions:

• Name: lowspace
  Scope: Node
  Subobject: Irrelevant
  Node: hp125
  Property: includeMe
• Name: lowspace
  Scope: Enterprise
  Subobject: Irrelevant
  Node: Irrelevant
  Property: dontIncludeMe

The lowSpace trigger would not prompt the following transitions:

• Name: lowspace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: ifEntry.2
  Node: hp125
  Property: includeMe

The trigger and transition fail the subobject rule.

• Name: lowspace
  Scope: Subobject
  Subobject: Any string at all, including the empty string
  Node: Any node at all
  Property: NO_PROP

The trigger and transition fail the subobject rule.
