Configure policy actions

In the actions tab, you indicate what the policy should do after evaluating a particular rule. The policy can send a message to the management server, start a command, prepare a command for the operator to start, or any combination or none of these actions.

NOTE:
In all cases, if a rule evaluates as true, no more rules are processed. It is important to pay attention to the rule order.

The selections that you make in this tab determine the rule type for this rule. The three types are:

If matched, do actions and stop.
If matched, stop.
If not matched, stop.

Select what the policy should do according to how this rule evaluates. Then, as required, set up the Message and the Automatic command or Operator-initiated command.

To access this tab:

Right-click the policy and select All Tasks Edit....
Select Rules.
Select the rule for which you want to set up or modify actions.
Select Modify....
Select Actions.
