IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Tivoli Enterprise Console integration
Tivoli Enterprise Console events can be forwarded from Tivoli Monitoring to Tivoli Enterprise Console Version 3.9. The events are forwarded from the hub monitoring server to the Tivoli Enterprise Console server or Tivoli Enterprise Console gateway. Make sure that firewall ports are opened between the hub monitoring server and Tivoli Enterprise Console servers. By default, the Tivoli Enterprise Console uses port 5529.
The Tivoli Enterprise Console event synchronization component sends updates to situation events back to the monitoring server and are then forwarded to the portal server. Actions performed at the Tivoli Enterprise Console for Tivoli Monitoring situations are reflected in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, this is an optional component that must be installed on the Tivoli Enterprise Console server.
For information on forwarding events to Tivoli Enterprise Console and installing the event synchronization component, see Set up event forwarding to Tivoli Enterprise Console.
