How You Create External Event Monitoring Sessions

CA Automation Point has the ability to monitor events from external event systems such as CA NSM Event Manager, CA OPS/MVS, the Hardware Management Console for mainframe CMOS processors, and Windows event logs. The sessions required to monitor events from these sources are generated automatically when the appropriate event interface is configured using Configuration Manager. To configure the appropriate event interface, choose Expert Interface, Automation, Events Interface, and then select the event interface that you want to configure (CA NSM Event Manager, CA OPS/MVS, HAF, or Windows Event Logs).

Because these types of sessions are automatically generated, you are not able to view or modify these sessions using the Session Definition Sets dialog. If you want to view or modify the session definition for a specific event interface, you can choose the Session Definition button located on the corresponding event interface configuration dialog.
