Trigger executable on HMC on occurence of an event

Hi all,

sadly I currently don't have any access to a HMC and I am interessted if anybody knows if there is any way to trigger an executable/script in case of incomming hardware errors etc.. I don't remember there was any such option but then my last HMC was v7.x more than 2 years ago I saw.
I saw an article about to configure syslogd on a HMC to forward such events to another syslogd. In the official documentation/Redbook there was only mentioned to trigger a message via SMTP but that's not sufficient for my environment.
Our event management system is not an IBM product so I don't have options via Systems Director or Tivoli Monitoring/OMNIbus.

Any experience/hints on your side?

PMDAKVM(1)						       Performance Co-Pilot							PMDAKVM(1)

NAME

       pmdakvm - Linux virtualisation performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)

DESCRIPTION

       pmdakvm is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metric values from the Linux KVM virtualisation subsystem.

       Unlike many PMDAs it dynamically enumerates its metric hierarchy, based entirely on the contents of /sys/kernel/debug/kvm.

INSTALLATION

       If you want access to the names and values for the kvm performance metrics, do the following as root:

	       # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
	       # ./Install

       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:

	       # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
	       # ./Remove

       pmdakvm is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.  The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
       installed or removed.

FILES

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm/Install
	   installation script for the pmdakvm agent

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm/Remove
	   undo installation script for the pmdakvm agent

       $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/kvm.log
	   default log file for error messages from pmdakvm
