About Custom Checks
You can create a custom check to use in the Model Advisor. Creating custom checks
provides you with the ability to specify which conditions and configuration settings the
Model Advisor reviews.
You define custom checks in one or more functions that specify the properties of each
instance of the ModelAdvisor.Check class. Define one instance of this class for each
custom check that you want to add to the Model Advisor, and register the custom check
as described in “Register Checks and Process Callbacks” on page 25-27.
Tip You can add a check to multiple folders by creating a task. For more information, see
“Add Check to Custom or Multiple Folders Using Tasks” on page 26-15.
The following sections describe how to define custom checks.
