Event actions

An event may or may not be associated with an event action. An event action is triggered after the event detector determines that the event has occurred. The Classic Event subsystem is not intended to run external processes. There is only a very limited ability to run external program files or to call methods from COM interfaces within the given system or network.

Actions are not required; there are times when you may want to simply store when events happened. In this case, you would select "None" for the action type when defining the event tag.
