Adding a Rulebase to a Process or Service
The TIBCO Hawk agent monitors managed objects by processing rulebases, which are named collections of rules that contain management logic. Using TIBCO Hawk Display, you can create rulebases with specialized rules. (TIBCO Hawk Display is not included in TRA). Hawk allows you to specify a very large number of alert conditions and alert results. You must have purchased the full TIBCO Hawk product to create TIBCO Hawk rulebases.
The same rulebase can be loaded on a single service, or multiple services.
Multiple rules defined in the same rulebase can monitor a particular application or system function. For example, an application rulebase could include one rule for issuing a medium-level alert if disk space or CPU usage exceeds certain thresholds. Another rule could issue a high-level alert and send a pager message to the system administrator if the application process terminates.
