Customize Action: Send a TEC Event to a TEC Server
Use this dialog to define an event action that sends a TEC-formatted event to a
Tivoli Enterprise Console (TEC) event server.
If the %ProductName% server receives a TEC event, this action can be used to forward
that event to the Tivoli Enterprise Console event server.
-
Server Location
-
Enter the Tivoli Enterprise Console event server's IP address or host name.
-
Server Port
-
Enter the destination port for the Tivoli Enterprise Console event server. If you do not enter an explicit port
number, you can leave this field blank and use the portmapper to find a service on
the specified host.
-
Event Caching
-
Choose either enabled or disabled. Event caching is used when events cannot be forwarded to the
specified destinations. Enabling event caching causes these events to be saved to a file until
they can be delivered successfully. When event caching is disabled, events that cannot be delivered
to the specified destinations are discarded.
-
Configuration Parameters
-
Because this action uses the Tivoli Event Integration Facility (EIF) for the delivery of events to the
Tivoli Enterprise Console event server, you can include optional keyword=value pairs to control the handling of events.
Refer to the Tivoli Enterprise Console Adapter's Guide for more information. The following configuration
parameters are supported:
- BufEvtMaxSize
- BufEvtPath
- BufEvtShrinkSize
- BufferEvents
- BufferFlushRate
