BMC SLM rule actions
Actions are somewhat different from other associations to a rule because a sequence of actions can be associated to one rule. The action forms are designed so all actions are derived from the SLM:Rule Action base action form. The main actions supported are:
- Set Value Action
- Set Value
- Set Fields
- Push Field
- Alert Action
- Run Process Action
An action of type Action Sequence is used internally to form a list of actions in a sequence (a set of milestone actions). The Alert action is implemented internally as a Push Field action that pushes the alert data in the SLM:RuleActionNotifier back-end form, which in response sends an alert or email.
The following image shows the relationships of Rule Actions.
