Customizing a database log file monitor

The database log file monitor that OpenEdge Management creates for each database contains default values. You can use these values, or you can customize the log file monitor to suit your needs.

Note: This guide presents the basic steps needed to customize a log file monitor and does not describe search criteria in detail. See the OpenEdge Management: Resource Monitoring Guide for detailed information about creating and changing search criteria.

To customize a database log file monitor:

  1. From the Database Details page of the chosen database, click Log File Monitor. The Log File page appears.
  2. Decide if you will customize the existing plan or add a new one.
    • To customize the existing plan, click Edit for the plan you want to customize. On the Edit page, change the polling interval, if desired. Select the Alerts Enabled check box to enable alerts.
    • Click Add Plan to add a monitoring plan to this resource monitor.
    • Note: OpenEdge Management prevents the assignment of schedules that share days or have times that overlap. For example, if you have a Default_Schedule set up for a resource monitor, you cannot set up an additional plan because the Default_Schedule is defined for 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. You must modify or remove the Default_Schedule to set up additional plans.

  3. From the Rules selected for this plan section, click either Add Rule or Select Rule Sets.
  4. After you either add a rule or select from the list of predefined rule sets, click Save to return to the monitoring plan detail page.
