Chapter 4 Working With Time Events : TimeEvent Resource Reference

TimeEvent Resource Reference
TimeEvent resources are used as timers. You can configure rule-based timers, scheduled in a rule, and repeating timers, scheduled in the TimeEvent resource. Use time events to trigger rules.
Time events configured to repeat at intervals are not supported in multiple-agent (multi-engine) configurations. Rule-based time events, however, are supported.
Configuration
The Configuration tab has the following fields.
The name to appear as the label for the resource. Names follow Java variable naming restrictions. Do not use any reserved words. Names must be unique within a folder. See Identifiers (Names) in TIBCO BusinessEvents Language Reference.
For events used in JMS channels  Names beginning with _jms or jms (case insensitive) are used only for JMS header properties. See Using JMS Header Properties in Incoming and Outgoing Messages. Consult the JMS specification for more details.
Repeat Every: Time events are created periodically. Complete the rest of the settings to define the period and number of events per interval.
Used with repeating time events only. Specify the interval between time events using a numerical value and a time unit.
BusinessEvents creates the first time event immediately after the engine starts and then creates the next time event based on the RepeatEvery interval.
A repeating time event expires after the completion of the first RTC cycle (that is, the time to live code is set internally to zero).
Events/
Interval
Used with repeating time events only. Enter the number of events to create each Repeat Every interval.
Extended Properties
The Extended Properties tab is used internally in this release and is reserved for future use.
