The event subsystem attribute provides information about the functional subsystem of the product that generated the event. A management application can use the values of the event system attribute (Event System) and this attribute to construct a simple message describing the event.

This attribute is required in the event generation group.

The syntax of the event subsystem definition is:

name = "event subsystem"
id = 7
description = "The minor functional aspect of the product "
              "causing the fault."
type = <enumeration>
access = read-only
storage = specific

value = 0

The enumeration list is unique to the event generation group being defined and is not specified in this example.
