Description Rafael Soares (Tuelho) 2011-01-25 19:47:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
Some resources operations like the 'Data Source > Local Tx Data Source > Test Connection' operation returns a Boolean value that indicates either a DB connection was obtained or not.

Today is possible to create an alert to be fired based on the Status (INPROGRES, SUCCESS, FAILED, CANCELED) of an Resource Operation. But in some cases (as in DS Test Connection case) the operation status is not enough to define the real state of the resource. In the case of the 'DS Test Connection' operation the result can be true (a DB conn was obtained) or false (a DB conn wasn't obtained - that could occurs due many reasons like: timeout, network issues, DS pool full, etc).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new Alert Definition for a Data Source Resource.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
   Isn't possible to define a condition set based on the operation results. Today just the operation status can be used.

Expected results:
   Would be usefull add the ability to use operation results in an Alert condition set.

Perhaps some ability to optionally test a pattern against the stringified result?
