You can edit and copy the properties, monitoring plans, or rule definitions for most resources. There are some limits to the types of editing you can perform for the OpenEdge Management-provided default resources such as CPU, Memory, and disk. For example, you cannot rename, copy, or delete any default resource monitors. However, you can change monitoring plan and rule definitions associated with each of them.

Note that if two or more people simultaneously edit a resource, the last changes submitted overwrite all previous changes.

To edit or copy a resource:

  1. Click Resources > Go to Resources in the OpenEdge Management console menu.
    All resources managed by your console appear in the grid frame.
  2. Filter or search for, and select the system, network, or file resource.
    The resource's summary data, which includes properties, monitoring plans, and rule definitions, appears on the detail page.
  3. Choose one of the following:
    • Click Edit. The property summary data reappears, allowing you to change editable fields.
    • Click Copy. You can change the properties, monitoring plans, or rule definitions as necessary. Note that when you copy a resource, the copy displays the same name as the original resource. You must change this name before saving the copy.
  4. Click Save when you finish.
