Adding the blackout rules to the rule engine

A series of entries (rules) must be added to the "MOMAPythonRules" Monityr-X dictionary. Contact ProactivePack support to obtain the latest data.

 

Adding the rules library to the StreamSets container

1. From the ProactivePack distribution, navigate to $PPACK_HOME/Tools/streamsets/ and extract the files ppack_rules.py and ProactivePack.conf
2. Copy these two files to the StreamSets container in the directory /opt/streamsets-datacollector/streamsets-libs-extras/python_rules
3. In that same directory, edit the file __init__.py and add the following lines :

# ProactivePack rules
from .ppack_rules import *

    4. Restart the corresponding StreamSets pipelines to load the library 

Library configuration

The file ProactivePack.conf (see above) contains a series of parameters to configure some options of the rule engine
