4490.0. "Alarm FM - Change Of rule type - urgent question" by BIS1::COLLEYE () Wed Feb 03 1993 03:03

URGENT QUESTION FOR A CUSTOMER DEMO

We are using DECmcc/BMS V1.2.3 

Alarm FM - Change Of Rule Type:

An Entity, an attribute an a pooling interval must be supplied.
Additionally, *TWO* comparison values must be supplied, separated by a comma.

Now, the Alarm FM pools the entity, which provided timestamped values for
the specified attribute.

We thus ends with 3 values:
- one timestamped value from the entity pooling
- two values specified at alarm creation.

Could you explain in which condition(s) the alarm rule is fired.

Many thanks,

Maurice.

I don't understand your question.
Could you supply an example rule that shows the confusing values?

    Erik,
    
Here follows the requested examples...

Could you explain me which circumstances cause the

to be fired.

Thank you,

(CHANGE_OF ( {attribute} , {previous} , {current} )

where	{previous} :== previous value of {attribute}, and
	{current}  :== current value of {attribute}

The rule fires if {attribute} changes from {previous} to {current}, so
in your example, RULE_1 fires if Connect Received changes from exactly
10 to exactly 20,
RULE_2 fires if Connect Received changes from any previous value to
exactly 20, and RULE$ fires if the counter changes from any previous
value to any new value.
