How to let a workflow to run again if condition matches again?

Hi Experts,

as we not yet using event management - we at least want be notified if our MID Servers are down.

I created a WF to create an incident in case status changes to 'Down' ... .

Unfortunately the Wf only runs once. If the status is up again and switches back to down ... no new Incident will be opened.

How can I re-run the wf if condition is true again?

I'd like to avoid fancy business rule deleting workflow version and restarting the wf hardcoded ... . The must be an option to tell within the workflow that it has to run again ... .

I was assuming I can just cancel the workflow after incident has been created ... but it will not run gain, even if cancelled.

What to do?

You need to Personalize the form and add Run multiple. Then make sure it is checked otherwise the workflow will only run once:

Hi Michael,



ok. This way it will run again ... BUT no 2nd Incident will be created.


I have no idea why ..


If i delete the incident created .. it will open one again ...


If set to resolved. It will be opened again!



I do not wait for completion within the task creation step.


Why the link to the incident is keept???? How to avoid?
