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