Update a Watch Event

CA APM lets you update the information for an existing watch event. For example, you can change the event name and description, and you can make the event inactive.

Note: If your administrator has granted you the correct permissions, you can complete this task.

To update a watch event

1. Click the tab and optional subtab for the event definition that you want to configure.
2. On the left, click CONFIGURE: ON.

   The configuration of the event is enabled.

3. In the Configuration Information area of the page, select an existing global or local configuration.

   Important! Global configuration changes affect all users, regardless of their role. Local configuration changes only affect users in the roles assigned to the selected configuration.

4. Next to the field, click the Event Configuration icon.

   The Events page for the selected field appears.

5. Click the Edit Record icon next to the watch event that you want to update.
6. Enter the new information for the watch event.

   Note: After you define and save an event, you cannot change the Event Type, Event Cause, Value Changed From, and Value Changed To. If you enter the incorrect information, delete the event and define it again using the correct information.

7. Click the Complete Record Edit icon.
8. Click Save.
9. Click CONFIGURE: OFF.

   The configuration of the watch event is complete.
