Symptoms
Can you change the IsRoot attribute in Smarts SAM notifications created from traps in the Smarts Trap Adapter based on the type of trap? Can you change the IsTrue attribute in Smarts SAM notifications coming from the Smarts Trap Adapter?
Resolution
This is not directly possible. You cannot change the IsRoot attribute itself because it is a computed attribute. However, it is a computed attribute based on if there is a CausedBy relationship. For example, if a notification has a CausedBy relationship with another notification, then its IsRoot would be false. Therefore, if you know if a trap is caused by another key trap, then you could set the CausedBy relationship to indirectly provide this functionality. This is a customized change to Smarts and not part of the GA code.
