This functionality is intended to <font color="#3b9f0f">**create rules to monitor several types of events**</font>.

Each **global event manager** contains an EPL for *Information*, *Warning*, and/or&#x20;*Exception*. EPL is an event correlation language used by Esper (**Espertech**).&#x20;

In&#x20;the initialization of <font color="#3b9f0f">**CITSmart** </font>**Event Monitor**, these EPLs are imported into the&#x20;Esper engine so that a new correlated event will be created each time the&#x20;condition set in the EPL is satisfied.&#x20;

Example of an EPL that correlates between&#x20;<font color="#3b9f0f">**CITSmart** </font>**Inventory&#x20;**&#x61;nd **Nagios events**: @Description ('For any Nagios event that&#x20;occurs after any Inventory event in the last 10 minutes) select \* from a pattern&#x20;\[every a = **EventCheckInventory**- > b = **EventServiceNagios&#x20;**&#x77;here timer: within&#x20;(10minutes)].

This feature provides a variety of actions, such as <font color="#3b9f0f">**including, changing, and deleting a global manager**</font>.
