Pre-defined policies overview

This topic describes pre-defined policies.

TBSM lets you customize the functions for the policies used for numeric aggregation rules and rules used to create services automatically. You can modify these policies to better meet the needs of your service environment. You should be familiar with Netcool/Impact policies before you attempt to customize these policies. For more information about Netcool/Impact policies, see the Netcool/Impact User, Policy Reference, and Solutions guides.

You can edit the following policies from within the TBSM console:

  • Numeric-Aggregation Policy
  • Numerical Formula Rule Policy
  • Auto-Population Rule Policies
  • ESDA Model Rule Policy

For more information about these policies, see the IBM Tivoli Business Service Manager: Customization Guide.
