Configuring CentraSite to Receive Run-Time Events and Metrics
Prerequisites:
Ensure that
Mediator is configured for publishing events to an SNMP server, as described in
Administering webMethods Mediator.
If you use a target type other than
Mediator or
webMethods Insight, be sure to configure
CentraSite to publish events by providing your own MIB file in your target type's definition file, as described in
Run-Time Gateways. (
CentraSite provides a MIB file for
Mediator and
Insight.)
Optionally change
CentraSite's default settings for logging run-time events, as described in the
CentraSite Administrator’s Guide. By default,
CentraSite logs all predefined event types, but you may disable any type.
CentraSite provides an Event Receiver, which is a data collector that collects the run-time event data. The Event Receiver listens for run-time events from the target instances via the SNMP (Application-Layer) protocol, and contains the logic to parse and store event data in the Event Receiver's data store.
The following sections describe how to configure the Event Receiver's properties file:
