WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Sensor Events, Version 6.2

Concepts for this integration

Review these concepts before proceeding with the configuration steps.

Event integration

In this scenario, you use WebSphere® MQ to pass the message from WebSphere Sensor Events to WebSphere Business Monitor.

  1. Events generated by WebSphere Sensor Events are placed into a queue.
  2. The queue is linked to a Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) running in WebSphere Business Monitor.
  3. WebSphere Business Monitor processes events placed into the CEI.

Business Asset Events

The WebSphere Sensor Events sent to WebSphere Business Monitor are called Business Asset Events. The event generation for this type of events is handled by the BAE Reusable Component.

The BAE Reusable Component:

  1. Accepts a tag read.
  2. Retrieves the associated data using the Asset Management Reusable Component.
  3. Generates the BAE XML.

The BAE Reusable Component is a task agent that is available for configuration in the WebSphere Sensor Events Administrative Console. See BAE agent for details. Usually you will not need to make changes to the properties.

Business Asset Events sample files

Sample files support files are available for the integration with WebSphere Business Monitor. These files are available in the WebSphere Sensor Events Toolkit and on the WebSphere Sensor Events server, once it has been installed.

AssetEventModelApplication.ear
This file is the WebSphere Business Monitor model application. It counts each unique RFID tag for all Business Asset Events received. Use the application to verify the WebSphere Sensor Events and WebSphere Business Monitor integration.
Sample_TagAggregationReport.xml
This file is a RFID tag read aggregation XML document. It is used during testing in the WebSphere Business Monitor development toolkit.
Sample_TagReport.xml
This is a RFID tag read XML document. It is used during testing in the WebSphere Business Monitor development toolkit.
WSEAssetEvent.xsd
This file is the BAE XML schema definition.
WSEAssetEvents.zip
This file is the project interchange of the source of the WebSphere Business Monitor model application. You should import it into the WebSphere Business Monitor development toolkit.
