== Overview ==
According to ITIL events can can be defined as: ''any detectable or discernible occurrence that has significance for the management of the IT Infrastructure or the delivery of IT service and evaluation of the impact a deviation might cause to the services''.
== Where events come from ==
Events come into Veloopti in the following ways:
# A policy on a Veloopti Agent detects a breach;
## A logfile policy detects a match;
## A SNMP trap is received that matches;
# A metric threshold is violated;
# An event storm rule detect a threshold violation and generates an event; ''and''
# It is injected by the Veloopti agent Application Programming Interface (API)
=== A policy on a Veloopti Agent detects a breach ===
Policies that run on a Veloopti Agent are able to send an event to Veloopti.
==== A logfile policy detects a match ====
==== A SNMP trap is received that matches ====
=== A metric threshold is violated ===
Metrics that are sent by the Veloopti Agent are able to have a threshold set on it through the [[Threshold_engine|Threshold engine]]
=== It is injected by the Veloopti agent Application Programming Interface (API) ===
The Veloopti agent is able to receive events through the inbound API method.
=== An event storm rule detect a threshold violation and generates an event; ===
