5.9 Completed-action linkage function

The completed-action linkage function automatically changes the status of monitoring objects according to the response status of the associated JP1 event. Thus, the status of each monitoring object in the Central Scope is linked to the response status of the corresponding JP1 event in the Central Console, and changes accordingly.

For example, suppose that an object has Error status because an error event has been received. When you change the response status of this error event to Processed, the status of the object changes from Error to Normal.

This function saves you from having to manually change the status of monitoring objects and monitoring groups and facilitates Central Scope operations.

The function does not work in reverse: Changing the status of a monitoring object in the Central Scope does not change the response status of the JP1 event matching a status change condition in the Central Console. For example, if you change the status of an object in the Central Scope from Error to Normal, the JP1 event in the Central Console does not change to Processed.

Important

If you change the status of an object in the Central Scope, and then change the JP1 event response status in the Central Console, the status of the object will change again as a result.

However, because the log of status change events managed by the Central Scope is deleted when an object's status is changed manually, the completed-action linkage function is disabled at that point.

If there are any JP1 events not yet set to Processed status, the monitoring object will be in a corresponding status. In order of priority, its status will be one of the following: Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Normal, or Debug. When the user has changed all the JP1 events in the search results to Processed status, the monitoring object changes to Normal.

If a JP1 event has been changed from Processed to Processing, Held, or Unprocessed status, the object will revert to its previous status accordingly.
