Managing rules and actions

These topics explains how to manage rules, the actions that are triggered, and how to use predefined actions and rules.

Managing rules
A rule is a system instruction that you create and IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor executes automatically. For example, you can define a rule to monitor server status and generate an alert if a server error occurs.
About actions
IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor performs an action when the occurrence of an event triggers a rule.
Using predefined actions and rules
IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor provides predefined actions that generate alerts and predefined rules, including ones that monitor for SLC messages. You can use these actions and rules when creating SLCs to monitor Processes or file transfers. You can also modify the actions and rules as necessary to meet your processing requirements.
