Using the Rule Processor Detail Control panel
Related topic
There are two ways to select an event for Rule creation: one is to select events from the BMC AMI Ops Automation Event Activity Statistics application (Option 1 from the Automation Menu). The other is to research and prepare a list of events and select Option 2, Display/Modify Rules and Rule Sets and begin creating Rules from the Automation Control panel.
The Rule Processor Detail Control panel plays a central role in Rule creation; on this panel you enter important information such as
- Rule ID of the Rule
- Event type
- Initial mode of the Rule when BMC AMI Ops Automation starts
- Whether the Rule is controlled from over-firing when events flood the system
- Rule documentation information
Additional panels used for Rule creation are accessed through the Rule Processor Detail Control panel and they are (by default) displayed in this order
- Selection Criteria
