Activate or Deactivate a Rule


When a rule is set to Active, that rule is applied to incoming events. When a rule is set to Inactive, it is not used to process any fault events. You can set a rule to Inactive instead of deleting it, and as such, you can reuse that rule in the future by resetting it to Active.

Activate or deactivate a rule

  1. From the Fault Viewer, select Administration. The Administration panel appears.
  2. Select Rules. The Edit Rules panel appears with a Status column indicating either Active or Inactive.
  3. In the Status column, select either the Active or Inactive toggle button in the same row as the rule. The status of that rule is changed.

Tip

A quick way to make a rule active or inactive is to right-click on the rule name in the list of rules to open the context menu, and select Toggle Status.
