4.2.11 Event Service page

This page is used to specify information about the events that are sent to JP1/IM using JP1/Base's event service facility. If you select the Enable the event service check box, the results of jobs executed in JP1/Software Distribution and errors that occur in JP1/Software Distribution Manager are reported to JP1/IM as JP1 events. You can also report alert information sent from clients to JP1/IM as JP1 events. The default is that this check box is not selected.

JP1/Software Distribution Manager can report execution results to JP1/IM for the following jobs:

For these jobs, JP1 Software Distribution Manager can also report the job execution results in detailed units called instructions. An instruction is the smallest unit of a job created in JP1/Software Distribution Manager and is created for each destination or distributed software. For example, if you have a job that distributes two software programs to two destinations, four instructions are created for the job.

When JP1/Software Distribution Manager is used with a cluster configuration, events are transferred to the physical host's event service.
