Implementing EventView Rule Sets › Add an EventView Rule Set

Add an EventView Rule Set

You must add an EventView rule set before you can add the associated members.

To add an EventView rule set

1. Enter /EADMIN.R.R at the prompt.

   The Ruleset List panel appears.

2. Press F4 (Add).

   The Ruleset Description panel appears.

3. Complete the panel, adding comments on the Comments panel if required. See the online help for field descriptions.

   Note: An EventView rule set can be activated only if it has an ACTIVE status.

Specify Control Options for Testing

The control options for the primary EventView rule set override those options specified for the included EventView rule sets.

When setting up an EventView rule set, you can test it without actually triggering any rules.

To set up a rule set for testing, specify the following values:

• NO for the Perform Message Modification? and Perform Action? options
• YES for the Log Ruleset Activity? option

You can then see from the entries in the general activity log (marked as TEST) what activity would take place if the EventView rule set was, in reality, working as intended.

Example: Messages Logged in Test Mode

This example shows some messages logged in test mode.
