New/Edit Event Rules

The New/Edit Monitoring Rule page is accessed from the Event Rules page by selecting a rule from the rules list , or by clicking New Rule on the group line, and is used to add a new rule or edit an existing rule.

Note:

By definition, event rules function differently from one another since they are monitoring different aspects of your development and production environment. Therefore, they are displayed differently and can be configured differently. For example, the Custom Event rule does not display functions. For reference, see Global Event Rules .

ClosedTriggers and Functions

The Triggers and Functions area is located below the General Details area, and is used to display and configure the rule's triggers - thresholds, severity levels, triggered actions and functions.

Triggers

The rule triggers are displayed in containers listed according to their severity level (Critical, Warning, Notice). The containers hold the trigger attributes (e.g., Memory Usage) and thresholds (e.g., 8192), and a list of triggered actions (Trace Code, Send email, Custom actions) to be executed when the event is triggered.

The displayed trigger attributes and thresholds in the containers vary according to the rule type, and can be configured according to your personal preferences. See Working with Event Rules for information on working with triggers.

Functions

The functions to be monitored by the rule are displayed in a list to the right of the trigger containers:

  • Add Function - Add a function to be monitored in the adjacent field.
  • Delete Function - Stop a function from being monitored.
