The Adaptive Action Manager component
receives situation events emitted by the Monitor Server. It selects
appropriate actions based on predefined bindings between the situations and
actions that are set by the user, and invokes one or more actions services.
The actions performed by the WebSphere® Business Monitor fall
into two main categories:
- Notification actions: These are a group of actions that dispatch
notifications according to criteria defined for each type of media. The supported
notification types are:
- E-mail: Sends e-mail notifications. They are sent using Java™ Mail
APIs.
- Pager: Sends a notification to users' pagers via e-mail to notify
them of specific situations.
- Cell Phone: Sends a notification to users’ cell phones via e-mail
to notify them of specific situations.
- Alert: Sends and displays alert notifications on a dashboard view.
- The Service Invocation Adaptive Action: Creates and starts process
instances using the runtime engine APIs. The name of the process and the data
needed to create it are defined in the adaptive action configuration. Supported
service invocations are:
- Web Service invocation
- BPEL process via Web Service invocation
