EEM "event track" not supported on Catalyst 9500 ??

[gnijs]

I am trying to trigger an EEM applet based on a track object.

However, running Fuji 16.8.1a:

(config)# event manager applet test

(config-applet)#event track ?

% Unrecognized command

Any workaround ? I don't want to rely on timers. My tracked object is a boolean combination of tracked interface line states, so it triggers immediately. The EEM applet also needs to fire immediately (i don't want to use timer based EEM applet)

Base event on syslog entry for the track change:

event syslog pattern "%TRACK-6-STATE: 1 ip sla 1 reachability Up -> Down"

Other option is write a python script using APIs.
