How to trigger WFA workflow based on OCUM Alerts for smarter autogrow

Nishith — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 11:09:49 GMT

Is there a way to trigger a worflow(WFA) from Unified Manager when an Alert is triggered?

if so, where can I find more details about triggering Workflows in Unified Manager

Hi Nishith,

Yes OCUM has a script plugin feature however this is supported on the Windows or RHEL releases.

The script plugin is not supported for the OCUM vApp but you can poll OCUM events via the REST API on a schedule if required but this limits the ability to process events in 'real-time'. Which version of OCUM are you running?

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your reply!!
We are using OCUM 9.4

can you share sample scripts/docs if you have any, it would be really very helpful for me.

Hi Nishith,

Thanks, which release (not version) is OCUM 9.4 running on? Windows, RHEL or the vApp? The platform you are running will determine what features are supported and what options and or programming languages are available.
