Event processing system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising steps of:
- (A) receiving an indication of an error;
(B) identifying a priority of the error;
(C) determining whether at least one action is associated with the priority of the error;
(D) identifying the at least one action associated with the priority of the error if it is determined that at least one action is associated with the priority of the error; and
(E) performing the at least one action associated with the priority of the error if it is determined that at least one action is associated with the priority of the error.

Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for processing events, such as errors, in an event processing computer system. For example, an event processor may receive an indication of an event (such as an error), identify a priority of the event, and determine whether an action is associated with the priority of the event. If an action is associated with the priority of the event, the action may be performed. The action may, for example, include outputting a message associated with the event to an output location. A user of the system may specify which actions the event processor is to perform for events of various priorities. For example, the user may indicate that messages should only be output for events having specified priorities. The user may specify such actions, and other parameters of the event processor, using configuration information which is distinct from the event processor.

53. A computer system comprising:
-
a plurality of priority-action mappings between a plurality of event priorities and a plurality of event actions; and
a software program comprising computer program instructions for;
receiving an indication of an event associated with a message suitable for output to an output location;
identifying a priority of the event;
determining whether an action is associated with the event based on the plurality of priority-action mappings;
identifying the action associated with the event if it is determined that an action is associated with the event; and
performing the action associated with the event if it is determined that an action is associated with the event;
wherein the plurality of priority-action mappings do not comprise a part of the computer program instructions. - View Dependent Claims (54, 55, 56, 57, 58)
