Business Process Event Monitor

Monitors your process chains using graph data points that represent them.

Overview

Monitoring Options

This event monitor provides the following options:

Add New Unit

Use this button to add one or more units to your monitoring configuration. Then, add data points for each unit. The units start with a score of 100%. For each data point, select a penalty to apply based on the status. Optionally, choose a threshold to alert based on the score of this unit. In the event monitor's settings, you can also set alerts based on the combined score of multiple units.

Alert with [Info/Warning/Error/Critical] if one or more graph data points are not found

Use this option to be alerted if one or more datapoint is missing.

Alert if graph data points are older than a specified time span

Use this option to receive notifications when graph data points have become older than the age you specify.

Alert if the total calculated percentage is less than a specified threshold

Each unit begins with a score of 100%, diminishing with each penalty. Use this option to receive alerts when the total percentage for a unit drops below a specified percentage.
