SettingDescription

Filter Settings

Select the event types you want to send notifications for in the Filter table. For each event type you can define that certain values in the event type must be matched in order for a notification to be sent, e g a specific workflow, or certain severities

Apart from matching existing values (for instance Workflow name) you can also use regular expressions and hard coded strings. When using regular expressions, Java syntax applies, see http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html

Event Field Name

The contents of this column varies depending on the selected event type, Event Fields for more information.

Note that only fields of string type are visible.

Match Value(s)

In this column you define the matching criteria for the events you want to send notifications for. Double-click on a cell to open the Edit Match Value dialog box where you can configure matching criteria.

The values you can select from are pre-defined suggestions, but you can also use hard coded strings and regular expressions.

Example

For example, entering:

.*idle.*

will match any single lines containing "idle".

Some fields also contain several lines, so entering:

(?s).*idle.*

will match any multi-line content containing "idle".

The default value for each of the components is All.

Note!

Some of the Event Fields let you select from four Match Value types: Information, Warning, Error, or Disaster. For the rest of the Event Fields Match Value you use a string. Make sure you enter the exact string format of the relevant Match value. For example: the Event Field timeStamp can be matched against the string format yyyy-mm-dd.
