The BrokerAdminClient class extends the BrokerClient class. In addition to having access to all the BrokerClient methods, the BrokerAdminClient provides a wide array of methods for administering Information Brokers, Broker clients, client groups, and event type definitions. Your client program creates a BrokerAdminClient to monitor and control the operation of a particular Broker.
For example, a network monitoring application might create a BrokerAdminClient to:
*Obtain usage statistics for a Broker, a particular Broker client, a client group, or an event type.
*Obtain a list of a Broker's clients, client groups, and event type definitions.
*Create or destroy a Broker client, client group, or event type definition.
*Change the properties of a Broker client, client group, or event type definition.
This chapter focuses on administration methods related to Brokers and Broker clients. Managing Client Groups describes the BrokerAdminClient methods for administering client groups and Managing Broker Event Types describes the methods for administering event type definitions.
