The Events tab of the Gentran:Server Process Control dialog enables you to 
change the status of an event by activating or suspending the event. The indicator 
in the far left column of the list on the Events tab registers the status of the event. 
The indicator can be one of the following colors:

◗

Red—the event is currently executing and you are not able to edit the event 
until processing completes.

◗

Yellow—the event is suspended (and is not processed until activated).

◗

Green—the event is activated for processing.

◗

Green with red “x”—the event is activated for processing but is currently 
blocked because the number of currently processing events is equal to the 
limit of events that may concurrently execute. 

Reference
See How to Change Controller Settings in the Administration Guide for more 
information about setting a limit for the number of process control events that can 
execute concurrently.
