The transport of events to a Enterprise Console Server is configured by specifying values for parameters in the file conf/cbe_adapter.conf. Configuration includes information such as the location of the Enterprise Console server to forward the events, enablement of event buffering etc.Configuration information is specified using the format keyword=value. Each keyword must be present on a separate line.
The configuration file contains the following keywords.
Specifies the name of the host on which the event server or Tivoli Enterprise Console gateway is installed. The value of this field must be hostname or IP_address of the event server.
The ServerLocation keyword can contain up to eight values, separated by commas. The first location is the primary event server, while others are secondary servers to be used in the order specified when the primary server is down.
The ServerPort keyword can contain up to eight values, separated by commas. For non-TME adapters that send events to a UNIX event server, use the default value of 0 (only one value of 0, even if multiple UNIX event servers are specified with the ServerLocation keyword). For non-TME adapters that send events to a Windows event server or a Tivoli Availability Intermediate Manager, specify one value for each event server defined with the ServerLocation keyword.
The ServerPort keyword is optional when the event server is running on the UNIX operating system, but mandatory when running on Windows operating system. It is not used when the TransportList keyword is specified.
