5 Correlación de eventos

Vista General

La correlación de eventos permite correlacionar los eventos generados por un problema con su solución de una manera flexible y precisa.

La correlación de eventos puede ser definida:

a nivel del trigger - un trigger puede ser usado para relacionar problemas separados con una solución
globalmente - los problemas pueden ser relacionados a su solución mediante reglas de relación globales
