Chapter 6 Managing Installed Software and Machines : Configuring Monitoring for a Machine

Configuring Monitoring for a Machine
You can specify when and how you wish to be alerted by TIBCO Administrator if problems occur. You can either use a pre configured TIBCO Hawk rulebase or configure alert events manually.
A Hawk rulebase is created using the TIBCO Hawk product. TIBCO Hawk allows you to specify a very large number of alert conditions and alert results. You must have purchased the full TIBCO Hawk product to configure and use custom TIBCO Hawk rulebases. A TIBCO Hawk agent service must run on the machine to which you wish to send the alert if you wish to create, modify, or delete alerts.
See Adding a Custom Rulebase to a Process or Service for information about creating a Hawk rulebase.
If you choose to specify an event, you can only select from the subset of the TIBCO Hawk conditions and results that are fully integrated with TIBCO Administrator.
After Domain is created, the hawkagent.cfg file of the created domain under TIBCO_Home/tra/domain/domain_name should enable SMPT settings, for sending an email alert or else an email action does not work. Then it shows an error in Hawk.log of the respective domain. Refer to, Required Configuration for sending an email for details.
