Event Processor waits before generating the pseudo event. Specify the resolve time in minutes
or seconds.

remains in that state by checking if an up event occurs. If an up event occurs, a resolving
pseudo event is generated by the Event Processor.

and the duration of time before the Management application performs the action specified in
an event action. Specify the number of flapping times in minutes or seconds.
The flapping policy checks to see if the event consistently transitions between two opposite
states during a specified length of time. If it does, then the specified action in the definition is
performed.
