Configuring the Event Simulator › Event Simulator

Event Simulator

The event simulator enables you to correctly assess the impact of a loaded system image on the operations of the local system. The MSGAWARENESS parameter group controls the availability of the simulator.

By using the simulator, you can generate simulated events and review the returned results. A simulated event returns the expected results. It does not invoke the actual actions. The results of the simulation identify the following affected active definitions:

• Resource definitions
• EventView rules
• Consolidated console message profiles
• Other product-specific definitions and records
