Manually configuring System Monitor and Failed Event Manager

System Monitor is a tool that allows you to monitor a WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus system from the Web. It allows you to configure how you view data and also allows you to view historical data in addition to current data.

Failed Event Manager is a tool that allows you to work with failed events in the WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus system from the Web to set up role-based access to failed events. (To create custom roles, you must install the WebSphere Studio Site Developer tools. Refer to the instructions in Installing WebSphere Studio Site Developer tools for details.) For more information on how to configure security for Failed Event Manager, see the System Administration Guide.

You do not need to follow the instructions in Configuring System Monitor and Failed Event Manager to use WebSphere Application Server if WebSphere Application Server version 5.0.2 or 5.1 or WebSphere Application Server Express version 5.1 existed on your OS/400 system before you installed the Web-based Tools component of WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus. In this case, System Monitor and Failed Event Monitor were automatically installed and configured to work with WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Express by the WebSphere Business Integration Server Express or Express Plus installer. The automatic configuration includes configuring an IBM HTTP Server and requires this product on the OS/400 system. Furthermore, there are no default port numbers and this information is requested during the installation process.

To utilize the new functionality in the Failed Event Manager, you must install WebSphere Studio Site Developer tools. Refer to the instructions in Installing WebSphere Studio Site Developer tools.
