Need for Alert Consumer Creation

Hi All,

This blog is continuation of alert configuration made easy blog posted before

If you haven’t gone through it you can refer it using following URL:

Alert Configuration made easy

You can consider this blog as alert configuration – Part 2

Below you can find what happened after Part 1?

We deployed alert configuration in production environment and when we created task for AlertConsumerJob. We observed a huge inflow of alert emails due to pre defined activated alert rules in environment

To avoid this issue we can create a separate alert consumer for this task,alert rule and mention it while creating them

First of all we need to enable web services navigator.

Reference URL

We need to perform java cluster restart so that changes will be applied

Alert consumer creation procedure:

StartPage

Go to webservices navigator->Select service interface as provider system and select AlertRuleIn->Select RegisterConsumer Operation->Specify AlertRuleID and ConsumerName->Click on Invoke

WSNavigator

RegisterConsumer

Invoke

This will help in triggering only that particular alert rule for AlertConsumerJob and avoids other alert rules that we do not want to be executed

Hope this information helps you

Regards,

Chaitanya K
