sp_iqevent [ event-name ], [ event-owner ], [ event-type ]
None required.
event-name The name of the event.
event-owner The owner of the event.
event-type The type of event. Allowed values are:
SYSTEM: displays information about system events (events owned by user SYS or dbo) only
ALL: displays information about user and system events
Any other value: displays information about user events
The sp_iqevent procedure can be invoked without any parameters. If no parameters are specified, only information about user events (events not owned by dbo or SYS) is displayed by default.
If you do not specify either of the first two parameters,
but specify the next parameter in the sequence, you must substitute
NULL for the omitted parameters. For example, sp_iqevent
NULL, NULL, SYSTEM and sp_iqevent
NULL, user1.
