Configure Common Event Infrastructure

You can configure Common Event Infrastructure resources, or change existing resources, using the server AdminTask object.

Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) can be installed with a default configuration that is fully functional on a stand-alone server configuration. You would perform this task only when you create a stand-alone server. In all other cases, you use the administrative console to configure CEI — such as when you are installing it in a ND environment in a cluster — to ensure that the configuration is appropriate on your system.

You can also use the wsadmin command to configure CEI, or you can use the command to alter an existing CEI configuration. In either case, you would change the configuration of CEI by using the server AdminTask object to run administrative commands.

After changing CEI configuration, you must restart the server or cluster.

• Common Event Infrastructure components

• Configure the Common Event Infrastructure server

• Deploying the Common Event Infrastructure application
  Before you can use Common Event Infrastructure, first deploy the event service and associated resources in the server runtime environment.
• Configure event messaging
  

  You can modify the messaging configuration used for JMS transmission of events to the event service.

• Populating the event database
