Adding Actions

Objective

To associate recovery actions with an event.

Background information

It is possible to associate one or more recovery actions with a specific event. These actions automatically trigger when the event occurs and can restore a satisfactory system service level.

Actions are associated with either the execution of a CIM method or the execution of a program. For example, if you are monitoring Windows NT services and an event generates when a service stops, you can associate the event with a recovery action that restarts the interrupted service.

Before you begin

Add an event or select an event to modify from the Event page. See, Editing events.

When you finish

Check the Tasks view to verify that you do not have any errors in your resource model. If the Tasks view displays errors, correct the errors before running the resource model. The Tasks view displays in the bottom pane of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Resource Model Builder.

Procedure

  1. Click Action from the Event page to open the Event Actions for window.
  2. Do one of the following to add actions using either the CIM or program method:

  3. Click OK to save the changes and return to the Events editing page.
  4. Close the resource model, or go to another editing page.
