Determining OpenEdge Management's action in response to an alert

An action is an automatic, user-defined process that occurs in response to a rule violation on a monitored resource. You create actions and associate them with rules to ensure that certain activities occur when the rule triggers.

You create and store actions in the OpenEdge Management Component Library. You use these actions to send e-mails, record the occurrence of an alert in a log file, send an SNMP trap, or perform a combination of these activities.

When you select Library from the menu bar all actions, with the exception of jobs, appear in the management console list frame under the Actions category. Figure 4–6 shows the expanded Actions category.
