Class Definition Statement File

The CDS file defines how events are constructed from information sent by the
AS/400 alert adapter. It is described in detail in "Class Definition Statement File"
on page 18.

SELECT Statement Example

Here, $ALERT_CDPT is a custom keyword set by the adapter. These keywords can
be used to write shorthand notation for SELECT statements. The following is
equivalent to the previous example:

FETCH Statement Example

Keywords

To customize events, the AS/400 alert adapter supports the following keywords in
class definition statements. Evaluation of these keywords is faster because access of
them is direct. Event definition content and syntax are described in the IBM Tivoli
Enterprise Console Rule Builder's Guide.
$ACTIONS
$ACTION_CODE
$ADAPTER_CORREL
$ADAPTER_HOST

starting the adapter. The default is QGPL/QDFTJOBD.

the event server. If a value is specified for this keyword, the
AS/400 secondary language must be installed for that language ID.
The default value for this keyword is ENU.

by the FilterDataQueue keyword. NO sends any new alerts sent to
the data queue. YES sends the next alert received on the data
queue. This can cause the adapter to resend previously sent alerts
and create duplicate events sent to the event server. The default is
NO.
