Events vs. Alarms

Forum

Hello,

in EPL we are selecting only the alarms with status active to avoid matching all alarms including cleared ones and having missleading results. In events we don’t have this option, so how to make sure that only new events are processed by EPL?

ex: processing event1 followed by event2

  1. Event#1 and Even#2 received the first time
  2. Event#1 and Event#2 received for the second time - we need only to take into consideration those 2 events and not the total of 4 events by EPL

is it the default behavior in events? or a total of 4 events will be processed by EPL?

Data models for Alarms and Events are different, specifically there is no state associated with Events.

If your requirement is specifically to check if the event notification is for a newly created event or update, then you can use something like isCreate() ( Event ) / isUpdate() ( Event )
