I found I can add more  properties into device, like role, datacenter, regions, it is real good feature, but I want use these properties in event alerts when zenoss send the notifications if some event trigger.

like :
Subject: [zenoss] ${evt/device} ${evt/summary}

Body:

Device: ${evt/device}
System: ${evt/Systems}
Component: ${evt/component}
Severity: ${evt/severityString}
Time: ${evt/firstTime}
Message:
${evt/message}
<a href="${urls/eventUrl}">Event Detail</a>
<a href="${urls/ackUrl}">Acknowledge</a>
<a href="${urls/closeUrl}">Delete</a>
<a href="${urls/eventsUrl}">Device Events</a>

I want add more properties

like

Subject: [zenoss] ${evt/device} ${evt/summary} ${evt/device/cRole} ${evt/device/cRegion}

Body:

Device: ${evt/device}
System: ${evt/Systems}
Component: ${evt/component}
Severity: ${evt/severityString}
Time: ${evt/firstTime}
Role: ${evt/device/cRole}
Region: ${evt/device/cRegion}
Message:
${evt/message}
<a href="${urls/eventUrl}">Event Detail</a>
<a href="${urls/ackUrl}">Acknowledge</a>
<a href="${urls/closeUrl}">Delete</a>
<a href="${urls/eventsUrl}">Device Events</a>

but it won't take effect, I can not find any hint in zenoss manual,  so I want to ask how to do it ?

Thank you.

I resovle it

transformer with event class / :

device = dmd.Devices.findDevice(evt.device)
if device is not None:
    evt.datacenter = device.cDataCenter
    evt.environment = device.cEnvironment
    evt.region = device.cRegion



notification body format:
Device:     ${evt/device}
Severity:   ${evt/severityString}
ENV:        ${evt/environment}
Region:     ${evt/region}
DC:         ${evt/datacenter}
......
