Objective 4: Process did not start at specified time

The bank wants to ensure that the EndOfDay process runs on the CD3 server group at 6:00 p.m. (Central Standard Time), or 18:00, each day. If it does not, they want to be notified.

To accomplish this objective, they first disabled all of the built-in SLC rules. This task eliminates any actions other than the actions they would set up to meet this objective. To specify a period of time in which this process must begin, they created a wildcard SLC. To tie that SLC to an SLC event, they created two rules:

• When the EndOfDay process does not start by 6:00 p.m. (18:00), a rule with an action to generate a high-severity alert and send an email to the administrator of the CD3 server group
• When the EndOfDay process starts late, a rule with an action to clear all alerts associated with the SLC and send an email to notify the CD3 server group administrator that the process started late
