6-1 Overview
Policies are specialized conditions that can be used to monitor your Terminal environment. Creating a Policy in
SST/OB defines the acceptable operational values for the Terminals. These are the conditions that SST/OB
checks when a Terminal state is monitored. If the conditions defined in a policy evaluate to true, a violation is
said to have occurred and appropriate actions are executed. The actions may include automated e-mail alerts.
Policies can be categorized as:
• Standard Policies
• Fault Policies
• Event Policies
You can access policies using the SST/OB Policies tab page.
