Tally Data Cell

Tally data cells contain data tallied from those sub-records scanned when the scan routine rule expression holds true.

Each scan routine has a target domain. Each tally data cell has a target domain. A given scan routine updates those tally data cells with the same target domain as the scan routine's target domain. Scan routine data cell names start with the target domain name.

For a given rule, you can use tally data cells in a rule expression or evidence after a call to a scan routine. For example, a LOCAL domain rule with the following expression makes available the process TALLY fields that contain the sum of all PROCESS domain metrics for process sub-records with the user name of CHARLIE:

PROCESS_SCAN(USER_NAME .EQS. "CHARLIE") .GT. 0

Subsequent rule expressions may use the tally data cells in the same rule. For example:

PROCESS_CPUTIME_TALLY .GT. 1000
