Tivoli Connection Guide and Reference


Defining event classes

The Tivoli Enterprise Console (TEC) provides rule-based management of distributed events. TEC collects, processes, and automatically responds to common management events such as server outages, lost network connections, or successful completion of application tasks. Tivoli Connection assumes that TEC is installed on a server in your network.

TEC events are defined by using the Basic Recorder of Objects in C (BAROC) language. Once a BAROC definition for an event type has been imported into the TEC rule base, events consistent with that definition will be recognized. See the TEC documentation for a detailed description of how to create event definitions and add them to the rule base.

The BAROC definitions for the application events supported by Tivoli Connection are provided below. You must import these definitions, and any others you choose to define, into the TEC rule base. The rule base must then be compiled and loaded before TEC will begin recognizing the event instances as valid events. Refer to the TEC documentation for a detailed description of event definition.
