Creating a Rule

Create a wizard rule that contains information about the topic, the number of events to process, the conditions to check, and the response to generate when the event meets the specified condition.

To create an advanced rule or a template rule, see the

RulePoint User Guide

On the

Design

tab, click the

Rules

view.

From the

Actions

menu in the upper-right corner of the view, select

New Wizard Rule

The

New Wizard Rule

dialog box appears.

In the

Details

section, enter the name and description for the rule.

In the

Topics and Events

section, click

Add Topics

, and then select the configured topic that you want to process, and click

In the

Events Processed at a Time

column, specify how many events you want to process at a time.

If you specify a count greater than 1, additional options appear, and you must specify how you want the events processed.

In the

Conditions

section, click

Add Conditions

Enter the condition name, and then select the condition type from the available options.

For example, if you use the

Compare topic property to a literal

option, select the topic property, operator, and the value with which you want to compare it. Use this rule to find out whether you can search if a certain string message or number exists in the data stream. For more information about conditions and operators, see the

RulePoint User Guide

Click

Add

In the

Responses
