Specifying a Custom Alert

In addition to tracing, using TIBCO Administrator you can specify that you wish to be alerted if certain conditions are met. This section gives one example. A detailed discussion of tracing is included in Adding a Custom Rulebase to a Process or Service.

To specify a custom alert, follow these steps:

    Procedure

  1. Choose Application Management > Timer Application > bwtutorial > Configuration.

  2. In the Configuration Builder panel, expand the bwtutorial application and click FileActivityTest.par, and then click the Monitoring tab.

  3. In the Events pane, click Add.

  4. In the dialog that appears, make the following changes (shown in the next figure).

    1. In the General pane, select First Component Failure in the Event Type dropdown list.

    2. In the Alert pane, select the Generate Alert checkbox.

    3. Select the All Occurrences radio button and select High in the Level dropdown list.

    4. In the Message field, type First component failure - FileActivityTest.

    5. Click OK, and then click Save.

      TIBCO Administrator will now display a high-level alert with the message upon first failure of this process. If you wanted, you could also have an email sent in the event of component failure.

  5. When you are returned to the Configuration Builder notice that it indicates that services require deployment. Click Deploy and the changes will take effect.
