The outbound Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) event service
is required for IBM® Business Monitor. In
the four-cluster topology, the outbound CEI event service is installed
on the support cluster.
About this task
To view this administrative console page, click .
The outbound CEI event service requires an inbound
CEI event service. If you installed a stand-alone version of IBM Business Monitor or
used the deployment environment configuration wizard, the inbound
CEI event service has already been created for you. If you are running IBM Business Monitor on Process Server, you can
use the Process Server CEI
event service. If you need to create a local CEI service, perform
the steps in Creating an inbound CEI event service.
Procedure
To configure the outbound CEI event service, complete
the following steps:
- In the list of components, click Outbound CEI
event service. The status for the outbound
CEI event service and event emitter factory is displayed. If you have
an existing MonitorEmitterFactory, the name of the CEI event service
that the event emitter factory is configured to use is listed in the
status box. If you have not previously created the emitter factory
or configured it to use a specific CEI event service, you will see
the message "Local CEI event service exists, but event emitter factory
does not exist." In that case, you must create and configure the emitter
factory.
Important: Before configuring the event emitter
factory, you must have a local CEI service that
IBM Business Monitor can
use to send events. If you need to create a local CEI service, perform
the steps in
Creating an inbound CEI event service.
- Under Configure an event emitter factory,
select the server or cluster for the event emitter factory.
- To launch the configuration wizard, click Configure
the Event Emitter Factory.
- Return to the configuration page by clicking IBM Business Monitor configuration in
the breadcrumb listing. When you click Finish,
an outbound CEI event emitter factory named MonitorEmitterFactory
is created for the cell. The status box for the outbound CEI event
service is updated to indicate the CEI event service that the MonitorEmitterFactory
is configured to use.
- Return to the configuration page by clicking IBM Business Monitor configuration in
the breadcrumb listing.
