Triggers a named event. The event may be defined for event triggers or be a scheduled event.
TRIGGER EVENT event-name [ ( parm = value, ... ) ]
Actions are tied to particular trigger conditions or schedules by a CREATE EVENT statement. You can use the TRIGGER EVENT statement to force the event handler to execute, even when the scheduled time or trigger condition has not occurred. TRIGGER EVENT does not execute disabled event handlers.
parm = value When a triggering condition causes an event handler to execute, the database server can provide context information to the event handler using the event_parameter function. The TRIGGER EVENT statement allows you to explicitly supply these parameters, in order to simulate a context for the event handler.
When you trigger an event using the TRIGGER EVENT statement, you specify the event name. You can list event names by querying the system table SYSEVENT. For example:
SELECT event_id, event_name FROM SYS.SYSEVENT
None.
