8.1 Process for setting up an event service environment

You must perform two tasks in order to configure an event service environment:

Configure an event service operating environment

Define how JP1 events will be forwarded

By default, the following settings have been set:

Run the event server on the local host.

Create the event database.
By default, the event database is created in the following location:
In Windows: installation-folder\sys\event\servers\
In UNIX: /var/opt/jp1base/sys/event/servers/
By default, the maximum size of the event database is 10,000,000 bytes.

Acquire all JP1 events.

Forward JP1 events to an upper server.^#

#: An upper server is a server set in the JP1/IM configuration definition file. Only JP1 events with the extended attribute SEVERITY, and with Warning, Error, Critical, Alert, or Emergency set as the value of that attribute, are forwarded from the local host. If no upper server has been set in the JP1/IM configuration definition file, JP1 events are not forwarded. If you want to forward JP1 events to a remote host other than the server set in the configuration definition file, modify the default setting.

The following explains the procedures for setting up an event service environment.
