To
configure events for alerting
for specific jobs, you need to have role
Job Monitoring Administrator
assigned. Expand the configuration pane and then access the service, for which you want to configure alerting.
Per service you can define events of category
-
Critical Execution Status:
The event is raised, if the
Executions Status
of a job is rated red or yellow, which is the case if an execution aborts or finishes with errors or warnings in the job log.
-
Critical Application Status:
The event is raised, if the
Application Status
of a job is rated red, which is the case if an execution produces an application error (for an ABAP job error in SLG1 log) or yellow in case of an application warning. You have the option to restrict the event on the Application Status rating.
-
Critical Runtime:
The event is raised if the run time of a job execution exceeds the threshold set by you.
-
Critical Delay:
The event is raised if the start-delay of a job execution exceeds the threshold set by you.
If you want events to be raised only for certain jobs you can make use of the filter options and specify the job name ("Job / Automation Name"), what is being executed ("Job / Automation Executable Name") or who is executing the executable ("Job / Automation Execution User"). The filter conditions for the different parameters are connected with AND for the same parameter with OR.
The filter options offered are "Is", "Is not" and "Contains". The entered value is interpreted as a string, if for example you want to get alerted
-
for 2 distinct jobs, have two filter parameters "Job / Automation Name". Enter one job name into the 1st filter and the other job name into the 2nd filter (if you need to specify more job names use the + button to add filter parameters).
-
for a group of jobs sharing a job name pattern, use the "Contains" option (do not use * to indicate the pattern)
To get alerted, make sure to switch on
Create Alert
and save. If you want to stop to get alerted, you can switch off the
Event Action
, or deactivate or delete the event in the list of events. Note that events are not raised for services, if those are in
Maintenance
or
Disruption
state (maintained in Business Service Management).
