Solved!
Go to SolutionS4048 EEM style scripting
Hi guys
Is there anything similar to Cisco EEM on a Dell S4048-ON running 9.14(2.17) ?
Im trying to run a script when a certain syslog message is received (ospf neighbour lost so network removed from ospf area)
Ideally want this to happen like the Cisco EEM but am struggling to find a way.
thanks

Hello,
I'm afraid nothing similar, the only script you can launch is based on CLI using SSH connection, like here
Thanks

Did I answer your query? Please click on ‘Mark as Accepted Answer’. ‘Thumbs up’ the posts you like!so a little bit of further investigation and we have used smartscripts and have been able to create scripts that can be executed. according to the manuals (Dell EMC Networking Open Automation Guide 9.14.2.1 June 2019) it is possible to execute these scripts based upon a syslog event, but it seems the commands do not exist in the firmware. I'm looking for the script trigger-event commands but not sure if this is something that can be done a different way?

Yes I know but the documentation says that this command is present.
Which error you have, and how do you use this command?

thanks - got it all working now - too long looking at the wrong modes- doh!!!!
here is how I have managed to get the same functionality as Cisco EEM to run a few commands to remove a network from OSPF if an interface starts flapping! hopefully will help others out!
=====install smart scripts========
pack install tftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/SMARTSCRIPTS-I-9.14.2.0.tar.gz
reload
=====install scripts ========
script get tftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/~~~~scriptname~~~~~~~
=====create event to trigger on syslog event ==============
script trigger-event ##name of event### log-event tag tag-regex ~~~~ASTATE.*up~~~~
======== link the event to the script=========
script event-handler ~name~
execute dellsh args /usr/pkg/ss-scripts/~~~~scriptname~~~~~~~
