Hi Guys,
            Is it mandatory to rename 'EventClassKey' field in an EventClassMapping to name '*defaultmapping*'? I had created an EventClassMapping name 'Hardware', 'EventClassKey' also got created with name 'Hardware', when i added the rule, the trap didnt get mapped to the eventClass. But when i renamed the EventClassKey to 'defaultmapping' i could see the rules that i added getting applied and event got mapped to the respective EventClass.

Is this the right way to do or did i do something wrong?  I am using zenoss 4.1.1 Enterprise version.  Also what is the purpose of 'sequence number' in an 'EventClassMapping'

Thanks
Sandeep
