Description

The MAX_OCCURRENCE_COUNT option specifies the maximum number of event occurrences that should be monitored for the current event. Any event occurrences detected by UEM that exceed this number are ignored.

This option is used to force an event that is monitored by a demand-driven UEM Server to become inactive when all occurrences detected for that event are set to a triggered state. This makes it possible for an event to become inactive without it having to wait for the date and time, as specified by the INACTIVE_DATE_TIME option, to elapse.

If the inactive date and time elapses before UEM detects the specified number of event occurrences, the inactive date and time takes precedence, and the event still will be made inactive. Any tracked occurrences that have not completed by this time will be set to a rejected state. If no event occurrences were detected, the event will be set to an expired state.

When the event monitored by the demand-driven UEM Server becomes inactive, the UEM Server process will finish when all processes executing on behalf of the specified event handler have finished. The UEM Manager then will wait for the UEM Server to finish (provided it was instructed to do so by the WAIT option).

count is the number of event occurrences to be monitored.
