$OPC_ENV(env variable)
Returns the value of the environment variable for the
user who has started OVO. This variable is only
available for operator-initiated actions. It is resolved in
the action call.
Sample output:
PATH, NLS_LANG, EDITOR, SHELL, HOME, TERM.
For example, if SHELL is set to /usr/bin/ksh and you
have set up the operator-initiated action echo
$OPC_ENV(SHELL), the following command will be
executed as operator initiated action:
echo /usr/bin/ksh.
Executes the application or action on the client where
the Java-based GUI is currently running.
This variable is resolved differently, depending on
whether the GUI client is running on a UNIX-based
system with DNS or on a PC using MS WINS
(Windows Internet Name Service). If you are using
WINS, returns the WINS
hostname.
Returns the name of the current OVO management
server. This variable can be used in all fields related to
actions.
