SFM Release Notes for HP-UX 11i v3 September 2010

The EVWEB tool includes the following components:
Event Subscription Administrator
Event Subscription Administrator enables users to subscribe to an indication and view it. In addition, users with administrative privileges can also
modify, and delete subscriptions. By subscribing to an indication, users can obtain detailed information about various WBEM indications.
As a part of event subscription, users must specify event subscription criteria. Users must also select one or more destinations to receive
information about indications.
Users can select one or more destination from the following list:
Event Archive: The path of Event Archive is /var/opt/sfmdb/pgsql for PA-RISC and /var/opt/psb/db/pgsql/ for Itanium. Event Archive is the
default destination.
Email: Event notification will be emailed to the specified email address. Users can specify multiple email addresses.
syslog: The path to syslog is /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log.
Event Viewer
The Event Viewer enables users to view the indications stored in the Event Archive. In addition, users with administrative privileges can also
delete these indications. By default, HP-advised subscriptions are stored in the Event Archive. The Event Viewer also enables users to search for an
indication logged in the Event Archive.
Log Viewer
The Log Viewer enables users to view and search the low level logs stored in the log database.
