Overview

The TIBCO Hawk Event Service is a separate process that collects information about TIBCO Hawk agents. Because it runs independently from other TIBCO Hawk processes, the Event Service can detect and report the event if an agent process should fail.

The main tasks of the Event Service are:

Record events reported by agents in text files or relational databases using JDBC
Detect and respond to agent termination
Asynchronously notify using AMI

For instructions on installing and starting the TIBCO Hawk Event Service, see TIBCO Hawk Installation, Configuration, and Administration Guide.
