Sentinel technical documentation is broken down into several different volumes. They are:
The Sentinel SDK site provides the details about developing collectors (proprietary or JavaScript) and JavaScript correlation actions.
In this documentation, a greater-than symbol (>) is used to separate actions within a step and items within a cross-reference path.
A trademark symbol (®, ™, etc.) denotes a Novell trademark. An asterisk (*) denotes a third-party trademark.
When a single path name can be written with a backslash for some platforms or a forward slash for other platforms, the path name is presented with forward slashes to reflect the Linux* convention. Users of platforms that require a backslash, such as NetWare®, should use backlashes as required by your software.
