Web Services Events

Web services eventing is a way of sending notifications through web services. A web service can establish a subscription to another web service to receive events published by that service. The Event connector can collect notifications sent through web services according to the web services eventing standard.

Use the wsevent-src.xml source policy to configure from where the web services eventing adaptor collects web service notifications and how to process these events. This policy file requires you to define the following information in the administrative interface:

When you deploy a catalog with web services eventing source policy, the connector collects events that the defined publisher outputs. You may want to collect web services events from important managed services and applications if these entities are part of a critical business service.

By default, the source policy is customized to process web service notifications from Microsoft Live Meeting servers. Customize the policy to process web services events from other sources. For more information about customizing policy, see the CA Event Integration Product Guide.

Add the wsevent-src.xml file to the samevent catalog and redeploy the catalog for the connector to begin collecting web services events and dispatching them to CA SOI.
