I guess I was confused by this in the admin manual: "You can run various commands such as stopping and restarting services on monitored devices through Zenoss commands."
The following screenshot shows two example commands 'sudo /etc/init.d/snmpd restart', and using another using winexe to connect to a remote box and restart zenwin. So, the 'sudo /etc/init.d/snmpd restart' command shown in the screenshot would restart snmpd on the zenoss server? Just to clarify, you are saying that the new event actions do not utilize the ssh connection used by zenplugin to run commands on remote servers? I really appreciate your help.

All event commands run on the Zenoss system. Yes, of course, you can get information about the event, which may describe the remote device, but everything is started local to zenoss system. Of course, you could always use a longer script (using TALES expressions) to effect remote systems. -Eric Brandon Leach wrote: > Is it possible to have an event command run on the local Zenoss box rather > than on the device which generated the event?
