When associating rules sets with database resources, you can use the default rule set provided by OpenEdge Management or you can create your own rule set.

To create a database rule set from the OpenEdge Management console menu:

  1. Choose one:
    • Click Library > New > Database Rule Set.
    • Click Library > Go to Library > Create Database Rule Set.

    The Create new Database Rule Set page appears.

  2. In the Name field, enter the name of the rule set (no spaces allowed).
  3. In the Description field, enter a brief description of the rule set.
  4. Click Save. The Database Rule Set page appears. (The rule set is also visible in the list frame under Rule Sets > Database.)
  5. Click Add Rule to select the rules you want in the rule set. The steps for adding rules to a set are the same for adding rules to a monitoring plan. See Modify database monitoring plans for information about adding rules.

Note the following about rule sets:

  • Once you create a rule set, you can edit, copy, or delete it.
  • If you add a rule or a rule set to an existing rule set, the change affects all databases using that rule set.
