End of Day rules
To monitor whether the EndOfDay
process
starts by 6:00 p.m. (18:00), the bank disabled all of the built-in
SLC rules and created two End of Day rules.
End of Day - Not Started rule
The bank also created an “End of Day - Not Started” rule that provides the following instructions for IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor:
A
CSLC034E
message
means that a Process did not start by NSRe on any of the servers in
the CD3
server group. When a CSLC034E
message
is generated because the EndOfDay
process does not
start by 18:00:- A high-severity alert is generated in the Active Alerts Monitor
- An email sent to the administrator responsible for the
CD3
server group
They defined the following information for the rule. (They created the action for the rule as they were defining the rule.)
