Configuration Management Event Categories
An event is a defined point in configuration management operation. The four categories of events connected with configuration management operations are:
member
configuration management project
revision
server
By default, the global.events definition file is contained in the following directory:
installdir/data/triggers/events
where installdir is the path to the directory where you installed the PTC RV&S server.
* 
If the events directory contains more than one global.events definition file, all files are loaded. If the files contain identical events, the values in the last read file are used.
You can change the directory by editing the following property under Configuration Management > Configuration > Properties in the PTC RV&S Administration Client:
mksis.si.triggers.events
The syntax for an event is:
<Category of event>.<event name>.<pre or post>
for example:
Member.freeze.pre
Project.importSubproject.post
The following tables list the events in each category:
