Unicenter Event Management is a CA NSM component for collecting and responding to the events in your enterprise or a logical segment of your enterprise.
The Unicenter MP Event Management component presents the event messages in the event logs that the Unicenter Event Manager manages. By leveraging Unicenter MP filter management, you can create consoles and scoreboards in Unicenter MP to get the events and statistics of events from different areas of your enterprise. Also, you can set up event managers to send certain types or groups of messages to Unicenter MP to present as notifications.
From Unicenter MP, you can act on event messages whenever necessary in the following ways:
Events scoreboards in Unicenter MP provide the following four types of statistics for event messages:
Provide the total number of messages.
Provide a status bar for all messages of a group or filter and separate counts for each status type found.
Provides the last N number of messages that match the scoreboard filter criteria.
Provides a dynamic chart of the message severity breakdown. The chart is updated periodically.
The Event Console shows the detail of the messages. You can launch the Event Console from event scoreboards or the Knowledge Tree. In the Event Console, you can act on events whenever necessary, and you can search for events, filter events, and publish events to an HTML, CSV, or PDF report. You can set up the security policies to allow or disallow a user to take certain actions. The Event Console is presented in the Portal Explorer for a Node (Host and Workstation) object and is accessible from the Knowledge Library.
In Unicenter MP, you can specify users from certain workgroups as event administrators. Event administrators can change the data configuration of event consoles and scoreboards. Non-event administrators can change the presentation configuration of event consoles, but need to get permission to change the scoreboard configurations.
