Example 1: creating a Rule where MLWTO minor = ALL

In this example, a MLWTO message is processed by the Rule as a complete entity because MLWTO minor = ALL is specified on the Selection Criteria panel.

The Rule in this example uses the Variable Dependencies panel and the variable LINEx_WORDn to help the Rule fire based on content within the MLWTO such as the message ID of the major message, the job name, and some additional information in the first and fifth minor lines of the message.

When all of search criteria and variable dependency criteria is met, this example Rule creates an ALERT with the appropriate message.

The MLWTO message is

To create a Rule where MLWTO minor = ALL

  1. Fill in the Selection Criteria - MSG panel as follows:

    BMC Software --------- Selection Criteria - MSG  --------- MainView AutoOPERATOR
    COMMAND ===>                                                 TGT  --- AOAO     
    
           Rule-set === RUL01                          Rule-id  === ABNDPROD
    
    Text Description:

    Text String (Enter Below):
    
    
    Issuer Identification:

    Type        ===>                                   (JOB, STC, or TSO)
    Jobclass    ===>                                   Job class of issuer

    Desc Codes  ===>
    Console Name ==>                                   Destination Console Name
    MLWTO Minor ===> ALL                               Single/All 
    Press ENTER to continue, END return to Detail Control, CANCEL to cancel changes

    When MLWTO Minor ===> ALL is specified, all the lines of multiline WTO message are processed by the Rule as a single entity. BMC Software recommends that you use the variables &LINEx_WORDn variables on the Variable Dependencies panel so that the Rule can fire based on specific content of the MLWTO.

    Note

    When creating a Rule for a MLWTO message, the Rule compares the selection criteria values to the content of only the first line (Major line) of the MLWTO.

    With the &LINEx_WORDn, x is set for every line of the MLWTO and n is set for every word in a line.

  2. Press Enter the Variable Dependencies - MSG panel is displayed as shown in the following figure.

    Variable Dependencies for MLWTO Minor=ALL
