Converting XPath rules to IBM correlation rules
Prerequisites
Create a symptom database, or
Import a symptom database
Procedure
To convert XPath rules to IBM(R) correlation rules:
- In the Log Navigator view, select a symptom database.
- Right-click the symptom database and click Convert to IBM rules.
- Click Yes if you want the XPath rules to be preserved after the conversion to IBM correlation rules.
Otherwise, click No.
Limitation: Log and Trace Analyzer only supports XPath expressions for the Common Base Event properties that are required.
For example, this XPath expression is supported:
/CommonBaseEvent[contains(@msg, 'SSL0600S')]
but this XPath expression is not supported:
/CommonBaseEvent[msgDataElement/msgId='SSL0600S' or contains(@msg,'SSL0600S')]
