Event Triggers

You can specify the following types of triggers for an Event:

Date-Time/Manual: Triggers workload based on schedule criteria. For example, you can schedule an Event to run an Application daily at 10 a.m. If the Event does not have schedule criteria, the Event must be triggered manually.
Database Monitor: Triggers workload when the number of rows that satisfy a monitor condition increases or decreases in a database table. Database Monitor Events monitor for changes using a polling interval (every 10 seconds by default).
Database Trigger: Triggers workload when a row that satisfies a trigger condition is added, deleted, or updated in a database table. A Database Trigger Event creates a database trigger on the database.
File Trigger: Triggers workload based on file activity. You can only trigger on file creation.
JMS Subscribe: Triggers workload when a JMS message is received.
SAP Event Monitor: Triggers workload when an SAP Event is raised on the SAP system.
Variable Dependency Monitor: Triggers workload when a global variable expression is met.
z/OS Data Set Trigger: Triggers workload based on z/OS data set activity. You can trigger the Event on the creation, update, and FTP transfer of data sets.
