Universal Event Monitor Manager for UNIX

Overview

This information on Universal Event Monitor (UEM) Manager is specific to the UNIX operating system.

A UEM Manager monitors a single event on any computer running a UEM Server component. The event to monitor is described using an existing record in the event definition database or values supplied via command parameters. Likewise, parameters describing event handlers also can be supplied from an existing event handler record or from command line options.

A UEM Manager causes a demand-driven UEM Server component to be started on the target system. The UEM Server is classified as demand-driven because it is started upon demand by a UEM Manager.

A UEM Server is classified as event-driven when it is started automatically by the Universal Broker, without a request from a UEM Manager (for more information, see UEM Servers - Demand-Driven vs. Event-Driven).

It is the demand-driven UEM Server that is responsible for monitoring the event and executing any processes on behalf of the event handlers. The UEM Manager may finish as soon as the Server begins monitoring the event, or it may wait until the UEM Server completes, in which case the Manager will receive status messages regarding monitoring activity.

Usage

UEM Manager for UNIX executes as a command line application.
