Monitoring Events

The Event Monitor (Monitoring > Events) provides an overview of all raised events and their statuses. From here, you can see pending events and clear raised events.

The top part of the Event Monitor displays a list of all raised and cleared events, and the Detail View displays runtime data for the selected event.

The possible event states are:

  • Pending: The event has been created, by raising the event definition, but has not yet been raised by the event processing engine (either because it has not been processed, or because there is already another raised event for the event definition).
  • PendingRaised: The event definition is in the process of being raised by the event engine.
  • Raised: The event has been raised, and has marked the corresponding event definition as having been raised. There can be at most one raised event per event definition at any point in time.
  • Cleared: The event was raised in the past, but has now been cleared, and is being kept for a historical context, or has been passed to a process that was waiting on the event.

Note: Deleted events are no longer displayed in the Events Monitor.

You can control which types of events are displayed in the list with filters. The following filters are built-in.

  • All Events
  • Pending
  • Raised
  • Cleared
  • Pending and Raised
  • Raised and Cleared

Actions

You can trigger these actions either from the context menu or from the Actions menu in the Detail View.

Note: For generally applicable object context menu options, see Object Context Menu.
