Customize Queue Alerting

Version 41.1 by Danniar Firdausy on 2024/07/22 10:29

In this microlearning, we will focus on how you can customize your queue alerts by configuring the trigger conditions and thresholds, which raise an alert and notify people when those points are passed. Should you want to learn more about the standard alerting that eMagiz offers, please check out this microlearning. Note that the queue alerting explained in this page is only applicable for eMagiz models that are running the current generation runtime architecture.

1. Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of the eMagiz platform
  • Basic knowledge of alerting in the eMagiz platform

2. Key concepts

This microlearning focuses on customizing the queue alerts for each environment in your model. By customizing: we mean further configuring the trigger conditions and thresholds of your queues from the general default settings provided by eMagiz, so they better suit your needs and requirements.

  • eMagiz applies the same set of triggers to all JMS queues
  • There are four queue trigger options that eMagiz currently provides:
    • Consumers check
    • Queue load check
    • Inactivity check
    • Periodic activity check
  • Recipients are defined on the queue level.

3. Customize Queue Alerting

In principle, queue alerting refers to the configuration of alerts that work by applying a uniform set of triggers to all queues in your model. By queues here, we mean all queues that are generated by eMagiz and existing in the Create phase of your model. By default, eMagiz configures triggers for all these queues using values based on the environment's topology. As shown in the screenshot below, you can find the overview of your queue alerts by navigating to Manage -> Alerting -> Triggers. Here, you will find all the queues that are generated by eMagiz and currently existing in the Create phase of your model.

However, as a user, you can customize these default values to better suit your model's requirements, as well as modify the trigger conditions and thresholds for each queue. To customize the default values that eMagiz has configured by default, you can click the "Configure defaults" button on top of this list. You will see
