Usage Guidelines
Environment variables are available to EEM policies when you set the variables using the event manager
environment command. They become unavailable when you remove them with the no form of this command.
By convention, the names of all the environment variables defined by Cisco begin with an underscore character
(_) to set them apart, for example, _show_cmd.
Spaces can be used in the var-value argument. This command interprets everything after the var-name argument
uptil the end of the line in order to be a part of the var-value argument.
Use the show event manager environment, on page 92 command to display the name and value of all EEM
environment variables before and after they have been set using the event manager environment command.
