IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
One hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and one Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer
In this scenario, a single hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server is forwarding events to a single Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer.
With bidirectional architecture, as changes are made to those events in the Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer, the updates are forwarded back to the hub monitoring server.
By default, event forwarding is not enabled for a new situation unless you base the new situation definition on an existing situation that already has event forwarding enabled or you explicitly enable event forwarding. When you enable event forwarding for a situation, the hub monitoring server sends the situation events to the EIF probe that was specified when event forwarding was enabled for the hub monitoring server.

Uses
This scenario describes the most basic of event synchronization architectures. This type of architecture is useful for small environments. Other uses include proof of concept or test environments. You can install all components on the same server. However, for performance reasons, install components on separate servers when setting up production environments.
