Setting up Alert Management

The system is shipped with a number of event types that are pre-loaded. To read more details about these, their properties and values, see AMT event catalogue.

Note: The routine is a several step process that includes the following and should be followed in the order outlined. Specific attention should be paid to the Data queue routines, in the initial phase, as changes made here may render the entire AMT system inoperable.

1. Data queue routine settings.
2. New event types.
3. Create parameters for an event type.
4. Create limitations for event parameters.
5. Create filters for event parameters.
6. Creating client types.
7. Assigning receivers to an event.
8. Assigning senders to an event.
9. Create an action for an event.
10. Assigning clients.

Note: In order to merely test the configuration of an event, it is suggested that you go through the simplified steps of examining the following:

• Start the data queue – see Configure the data queue settings
• Assign a client – preferably the standard iSeries (5250) to each user – see Assign clients
• Assign receiver(s) to event types – see Assign receivers to an event
• Activate event type(s) – see Configure the basic properties of a new event type
