Creating a Rule Set


A Rule Set contains names of Rules and their sequence. Including a Rule Set in a PASDef means that the Rule Set is loaded into the PAS (or PASes) that use the PASDef during a COLD start of the PAS.

The Rules are not physically stored in a Rule Set. Rules can be included in more than one Rule Set so that you have only one copy of the Rule that you need to maintain.

To create a Rule Set

  1. Select Rulesets from the EZAORUL view.

                                                          .Quit/Disconnect         
                                                          .Quit

    The RULESET view is displayed. For information about this view, place the cursor on the view name and press PF1.

    When the RULESET view is displayed, verify that the desired setbase and group are shown at the top of the view. If they are not, use the SETBS view to select the correct setbase and return to the RULESET view. Once a setbase is selected, it is remembered until you change it using the SETBS view.

    Note

    You can also migrate Rules and Rule Sets from classic Rules to Rules Management. For more information see 'Migrating from classic Rules' in this manual.

  2. Issue the ADD command in the COMMAND field to start creating a new Rule Set.
