Monitor rule's condition template

If a monitor rule contains a condition, the <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/xapi/template/source/smcfs/monitor/ORDER_MONITOR_EX_CONDITION.xml template file is used to obtain both the order details and the evaluating monitor rule details. See the provided <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/xapi/template/source/smcfs/monitor/ORDER_MONITOR_EX_CONDITION.xml.sample file for more details.

If the <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/xapi/template/source/smcfs/monitor/ORDER_MONITOR_EX_CONDITION.xml template file does not exist, the MonitorConsolidation->Order element of the default monitor template, the <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/xapi/template/source/smcfs/monitor/ORDER_MONITOR_EX.xml file, is used.

If the default monitor template is used, the MonitorConsolidation-> Order->OrderStatuses-> OrderStatus-> MonitorRule element is ignored and is not passed into the condition.
