Manage and Run Events Ad Hoc

This section describes the Events workspace, where you can manage events and specify options for each supported event type. To schedule and monitor events, access the Schedule and Monitor workspaces, respectively.

Some event types can be created and managed directly, while other event types that are created outside of Automation Center can only be scheduled and monitored.
