Copying Other Objects

This section explains how to make a copy of any one of the following objects:

• Alarm
• Poll
• Mask
• OpC mask
• Node
• Action Router rule
• Perl subroutine

 
  To copy one of these objects:

1. Open the appropriate list window.
2. Select the object you want to copy from the list.
3. With your cursor over the selected object, click the right mouse button to display a pop-up menu of actions you can perform against the object.
4. Select Copy from the pop-up menu.

   A definition window is displayed. The window contains a complete definition except for a name.

5. In the definition window, enter a name for the copied object.
6. Select the Save button in the definition window.

You now have an exact copy of the object you began with. Make any necessary changes to the copy, and save it again.
