MONITORING


Forwarding an event to the Tivoli Enterprise Console
You can use the event handler notification method, Forward event to Tivoli Enterprise Console, to allow the Tivoli Enterprise Console (TEC) to receive IBM® Lotus® Domino™ events and reformat them as TEC events. The reformatted TEC event is then sent to the TEC server that you specify in the Configuration Settings document.

To use this notification method, you must complete these steps:

1. Enable logging to Tivoli Enterprise Console.

For information about enabling logging to the Tivoli Enterprise Console, see the topic Enabling the Tivoli Enterprise Console task.

2. Load the Event task on the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ server.

3. Create or use an existing Event Handler that can send an event to Tivoli Enterprise Console.

For information about creating an Event Handler, see the topic Creating an event handler.

4. In your Tivoli server configuration, set up a new rule base to allow the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ event to be sent to the TEC event database. For instructions about setting up a new rule base on the Tivoli server, see the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console Rule Developer's Guide at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v3r1/index.jsp?toc=/com.ibm.itec.doc_3.9/toc.xml. You can also reference the wrb command in the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Console Command and Task Reference at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v3r1/index.jsp?toc=/com.ibm.itec.doc_3.9/toc.xml.

5. Right click on the rule base you just created, and then click Import into Rule Base.

6. On the Import Into Rule Base dialog box, Class Definitions section, click Import Class Definitions.

7. In the Position to insert imported class file section, click Insert After.

8. Select tec.baroc.

9. Select the file DOMINO.baroc.

10. Click Import and Close.
