The HA Monitors bundle depends on, and includes, Event Monitoring
Services (EMS), (B7609BA). When you install HA Monitors, the install
process automatically picks up and installs EMS.
Event Monitoring Service has two main parts:
• The EMS framework registers monitors. It can query monitors,
accept status messages, interpret them according to your configured
monitoring requests, and send notification when and where you
requested.
• The EMS graphical interface runs under SAM and allows you to
create, modify, and remove monitoring requests. It also displays a list
of all current monitors and requests.
