Thresholds in BMCTRIG syntax

In the syntax for the BMCTRIG utility, you can specify thresholds for each exception that BMC Software supplies.

Before you begin

To set the thresholds by using the BMCTRIG syntax, you must first perform the following operations:

1. Create an action that contains BMCTRIG as instructed in Creating-a-Service-Action.
2. Create syntax for BMCTRIG to use with the BMCTRIG action as instructed in Copying-a-Service-Action.

3. Specify threshold values for the exceptions that you want to monitor.

   DASD MANAGER PLUS displays panels for the exceptions for you to enter threshold values. When you generate the BMCTRIG action, the syntax indicates the exceptions and thresholds that you specified. Unless you set the SYSTRIGS option to F (FORCE) in the installation options module, BMCTRIG uses the thresholds that the syntax specifies for the objects that it processes.

   If the SYSTRIGS option is Y in the installation options module or SYSTEMTRIGGERS is Y, BMCTRIG also evaluates the exceptions that you have defined for the subsystem that you have not specified in the syntax. In this situation, the thresholds that you specify in the syntax override the thresholds in the system triggers.

To set thresholds in BMCTRIG syntax from the main BMCTRIG panel

1. Access the main BMCTRIG panel as follows:
   1. Create an action for BMCTRIG or select the one that you have already defined as instructed in Creating-a-Service-Action.

   2. Edit the BMCTRIG service as instructed in Copying-a-Service-Action.The main BMCTRIG anel (see the following figure) appears.

      Important

      If you plan to analyze Db2 RTS exceptions, change the Db2 RTS option to Y or O in the What to Analyze section of the BMCTRIG Service Syntax panel.
