The failed event manager is a web-based client for working with and resubmitting the failed invocations.
The failed event manager is an integration application and is available in the Administrative console.
It displays the number of failed events and provides a number of search capabilities.
You can query for failed events using a variety of criteria such as date, last successful or failed event, by exception text or a combination of these.
The following illustration provides a high-level description WebSphere® Process Server exception processing and its relationship to the failed event manager. Explanations of the numbered steps follow the illustration.
Events matching the search criteria entered in the failed event manager are displayed. You can resubmit single or multiple failed events. While resubmitting, you can also change the payload. For instance, the failure could have been caused by passing in some inappropriate data. In this case, the payload can be updated from within the failed events manager and resubmitted. Only the data stored in memory would be updated, so the original source of the data will not be corrected. If a resubmitted event fails, this will show up as a new failed event in the failed event manager. There is also the ability to delete single or multiple events and this is often the appropriate action due to data becoming invalid since the time of the failure.
