Syntax

REPLACE PROCEDURE TDWM.TDWMEventControl (
  IN EventName TD_ANYTYPE,
  IN Operation VARCHAR(1) CHARACTER SET LATIN,
  IN Duration INTEGER,
  OUT NewStatus VARCHAR(8) CHARACTER SET LATIN,

)
  ...
;

Syntax Elements

EventName
Name of the event specified.
Operation
Status of the event:
  • A = Active
  • I = Inactive
Duration
Time, in minutes, after the event expires.
A value of zero indicates no expiration time.
NewStatus
Status of the event after the procedure call.
PriorStatus
Status of the event before the procedure call.

Usage Notes

The user-defined event specified must be an existing event in the active rule set and can include the following actions:
  • Notifications (for example, send alerts, run programs, or post to a queue table)
  • Activate a health condition (SysCon) or planned environment (OpEnv). The highest priority for health conditions and planned environments determines the rule state values that the system enforces. Rule attributes that can be changed based on the rule state include:
    • Rule enable flag
    • Rule system session, system query, and utility throttle limits
    • Workload throttle limits

For more information on SysCon and OpEnv, see the Teradata Viewpoint Help.

The TDWMEventControl procedure provides similar functionality to the USER EVENT CONTROL request. For more information about this interface, see USER EVENT CONTROL.

Example: Using TDWMEventControl

CALL TDWM.TDWMEventControl('NodeDownEvent', 'A', 0, NewStatus, PriorStatus);
