Built-in Action Types

When you apply active monitors, you typically associate an action and a device state with changes observed by the monitor. There are three main categories of built-in action types available through the Actions Library. Actions can be triggered or scheduled.

Note: Certain actions (CM Actions, for example) can be invoked on demand (Run Now).

Built-in action types include:

Notifications

Remote/Local Script or Execution
