Examples

The following configuration file excerpt shows how to declaratively specify the properties of the RuleSettings class.

<healthMonitoring>  
    <rules>  
        <add name="All Errors Default"  
            eventName="All Errors"  
            provider="EventLogProvider"  
            profile="Default"  
            minInterval="00:01:00"   
        />  
        <add name="All Audits Default"  
            eventName="All Audits"  
            provider="SqlWebEventProvider"  
            profile="Default"  
            minInterval="00:00:30"   
        />  
        <add name="Failure Audits Default"  
            eventName="Failure Audits"  
            provider="WmiWebEventProvider"  
            profile="Critical"  
            minInterval="00:00:30"   
        />  
        <add name="Request Processing Errors"

            profile="Critical"  
        />  
   </rules>  
</healthMonitoring>  

The following code example shows how to create and set the values of the RuleSettings type. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the HealthMonitoringSection class.

// Add a RuleSettings object to the Rules collection property.
RuleSettings ruleSetting = new RuleSettings("All Errors Default",
    "All Errors", "EventLogProvider");
ruleSetting.Name = "All Errors Custom";
ruleSetting.EventName = "All Errors";
ruleSetting.Provider = "EventLogProvider";
ruleSetting.Profile = "Custom";
ruleSetting.MaxLimit = Int32.MaxValue;
ruleSetting.MinInstances = 1;
ruleSetting.MinInterval = TimeSpan.Parse("00:00:30");
ruleSetting.Custom = "MyEvaluators.MyCustomeEvaluator2, MyCustom.dll";
healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Add(ruleSetting);
' Add a RuleSettings object to the Rules collection property.
Dim ruleSetting As RuleSettings = new RuleSettings("All Errors Default", _
    "All Errors", "EventLogProvider")
ruleSetting.Name = "All Errors Custom"
ruleSetting.EventName = "All Errors"
ruleSetting.Provider = "EventLogProvider"
ruleSetting.Profile = "Custom"
ruleSetting.MaxLimit = Int32.MaxValue
ruleSetting.MinInstances = 1
ruleSetting.MinInterval = TimeSpan.Parse("00:00:30")
ruleSetting.Custom = "MyEvaluators.MyCustomeEvaluator2, MyCustom.dll"
healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Add(ruleSetting)

The following code example shows how to get and display the values of the RuleSettings type. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the HealthMonitoringSection class.

// Display contents of the Rules collection property
Console.WriteLine(
    "Rules Collection contains {0} values:", healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Count);

// Display all elements.
for (System.Int32 i = 0; i < healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Count; i++)
{
ruleSetting = healthMonitoringSection.Rules[i];
string name = ruleSetting.Name;
string eventName = ruleSetting.EventName;
string provider = ruleSetting.Provider;
string profile = ruleSetting.Profile;
int minInstances = ruleSetting.MinInstances;
int maxLimit = ruleSetting.MaxLimit;
TimeSpan minInterval = ruleSetting.MinInterval;
string custom = ruleSetting.Custom;
    string item = "Name='" + name + "', EventName='" + eventName +
        "', Provider =  '" + provider + "', Profile =  '" + profile +
        "', MinInstances =  '" + minInstances + "', MaxLimit =  '" + maxLimit +
        "', MinInterval =  '" + minInterval + "', Custom =  '" + custom + "'";
    Console.WriteLine("  Item {0}: {1}", i, item);
}
' Display contents of the Rules collection property
Console.WriteLine( _
    "Rules Collection contains {0} values:", healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Count)

' Display all elements.
For i As System.Int32 = 0 To healthMonitoringSection.Rules.Count -1
ruleSetting = healthMonitoringSection.Rules(i)
Dim name As String = ruleSetting.Name
Dim eventName As String = ruleSetting.EventName
Dim provider As String = ruleSetting.Provider
Dim profile As String = ruleSetting.Profile
Dim minInstances As Integer = ruleSetting.MinInstances
Dim maxLimit As Integer = ruleSetting.MaxLimit
Dim minInterval As TimeSpan = ruleSetting.MinInterval
Dim custom As String = ruleSetting.Custom
    Dim item As String = "Name='" & name & "', EventName='" & eventName & _
        "', Provider =  '" & provider & "', Profile =  '" & profile & _
        "', MinInstances =  '" & minInstances & "', MaxLimit =  '" & maxLimit & _
        "', MinInterval =  '" & minInterval.ToString() & "', Custom =  '" & custom & "'"
    Console.WriteLine("  Item {0}: {1}", i, item)
Next

Remarks

Event rules determine which event, using which profile, is fired to which provider.
