When to Use This Section

Use this section for a brief description of the Event Management Service (EMS) and the tools used to monitor EMS event messages.

What Is the Event Management Service (EMS)?

The Event Management Service (EMS) is a collection of processes, tools, and interfaces that support the reporting and retrieval of event information. Information retrieved from EMS can help you to:

•

•

•

•

•

•

Monitor your system or network environment

Analyze circumstances that led up to a problem

Detect failure patterns

Adjust for changes in the run-time environment

Recognize and handle critical problems

Perform many other tasks required to maintain a productive computing operation

Tools for Monitoring EMS Event Messages
