Copy a Rule

Sometimes it may easier to copy a rule and make changes to it rather than create a new rule from scratch.  In other words, copying a rule is basically the same as creating a new Rule, but with the values from the copied Rule already filled in for you.

Copy a Rule

  1. From the Fault Viewer, select  Administration.  The Administration panel appears.

  2. Select  Rules. The Edit Rules panel appears.

  3. Right-click on the desired rule name in the list of rules and select Copy from the popup menu.

  4. The Edit Rule dialog box appears with all the same field values as the rule that was copied -- except the Name field.

  5. Specify a name for the new Rule in the Name field and click OK.  A new rule is created based on the field values of the 'copied' rule.
