This section describes how to install the Common Event Infrastructure Web Services Receiver in existing environments. The information includes planning, preparing for, completing, and maintaining product installations, including configuring the product after installation.
This section requires you to be familiar with the IBM WebSphere Application Server administration concepts, which can be found in the IBM WebSphere Application Server library.
You should install the Common Event Infrastructure Web Services Receiver if you need to receive events in the Common Event Infrastructure through Web Services invocations in a WebSphere Application Server V6.
You can uninstall the receiver once you no longer need to receive events through Web Services invocations.
The receiver must be installed in a WebSphere Application Server instance that contains the Common Event Infrastructure component. The Common Event Infrastructure is not shipped with WebSphere Application Server V6 and is installed by other IBM products during their deployment.
Consult your other IBM product documentation to determine if they deploy the Common Event Infrastructure component in a WebSphere Application Server component.
You can verify whether a Common Event Infrastructure server is already installed in the WebSphere Application Server by checking for an application called "Event Server" in the "Enterprise Applications" panel.
