The Monitor Message object enables
you to monitor a CA Unicenter NSM server for messages according to
criteria that you specify.
Use the Monitor Message object to
trigger corrective Policies when messages about a certain computer
arrive. For example, consider placing a Monitor Message object at
the beginning of a Policy, running diagnostic or corrective actions
when a message arrives that matches your criteria, and then marking
the message as acknowledged after the diagnostic or corrective
actions have completed.
To configure the Monitor Message
object you need to know the name of the CA Unicenter NSM server,
and the criteria that you will use to search for messages.
