NORTHWEST
INDIANA/CHICAGOLAND, June 1999--DDL Systems, Inc. announces support for
Windows®. Now,
our System i® Systems Management software can monitor
Windows® event logs that allows
automation of performance, network, system, application, security events and more. With
the industry focus on client server and e-business, the Windows®
operating system has quickly become another
mission-critical component of your datacenter. Managing the complexities of these
heterogeneous computer systems are becoming increasingly important to the success of your
business. |
 |
|
Windows® event logs
are very similar to the system operator message queue on the System i®. They contain
important information regarding the health and status of your servers. Specifically,
Windows® categorizes the events into three different log files: |
 |
•
Application logs. |
• System logs. |
• Security logs. |
 |
|
Each log file
contains information similar to that contained within a typical message on the
System i
(e.g. system name, user, message id, message type, date/time stamp, and message text). You
create a new server message queue on the System i® to contain the Windows® event messages and
start an ACOPAGER Message Monitor for this new message queue.
Windows® event log messages
are routed to the server message queue and the ACOPAGER Message Monitors perform
automation activities just like any other monitored message.You can specify action sets
for each Windows® server message queue to send pager, e-mail, break messages, and run commands
(or action scripts)
based on the specific (or generic) characteristics of each event. |
