DataFlux Data Management Studio 2.6: User Guide

Task Properties Dialog

The Task Properties dialog enables you to add a new monitoring task or maintain an existing task. A task specifies one or more rules and one or more events that can be triggered based on the results that are returned by a rule. For more information about creating tasks and events, see Creating a Rule that Compares Two Fields.

Name - Specifies the name of the task.

Task label - Specifies descriptive text for the task. Some interfaces, such as the Monitor Viewer that is available from the Information riser, display the label as well as the name. The label might be easier to understand than the name alone.

Code - Specifies a unique alphanumeric identifier for the task. An identifier is provided after you save the task.

Description - Specifies more descriptive text for the task.

Available - Enables you to select rules that are available in the current repository and move them to the Selected pane. Click the icons at top right to toggle between a list of individual rules and a list of folders that contain sets of rules. Use the arrows at right to move one or more selected rules to the Selected pane.

Selected - Enables you to create pairs of rules and events. If a rule is not paired with an event, select the rule, and then click the Rule Details button to specify one or more events for the rule. For a description of the events, see Overview of Monitoring Events.

Rule Details - Opens the Rule Details dialog to maintain events for a rule. You can also specify dashboard options such as weight, threshold, or dimension. For more information about these attributes, see the topic for the Rule Details dialog.

Remove - Allows you to delete the rule and its events by selecting the rule and clicking the Remove button.

Rule definition - Displays the check that is specified for the rule that selected in the Available pane or the Selected pane.
