WEBES Events
Monitoring WEBES
When WEBES monitors a EVA, it analyzes the EVA event flow and issues notification messages when
required. Typically, the messages are sent to a Local Administrator Group responsible for the
operational status of the EVA. If desired, WEBES can be linked in to ISEE to send messages related
to component failures directly to HP for replacement action, diagnosis, or both. WEBES can also send
information to several supported management applications, such as the HP Systems Insight Manager
(HP SIM).
Generating WEBES Test Events
To generate WEBES test events on a system running WEBES, complete the following steps:
1. Verify that an evt file named similar to eva_events.evt is located in:
• ~\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\svctools\common\ca\examples directory for a 32-bit
operating system
• ~\Program Files(x86)\Hewlett-Packard\svctools\common\ca\examples directory for a 64-
bit operating system
In WEBES 5.5 or later versions, that are installed through RSS\RSA, the evt file is located in:
• ~\Program Files\HP\svctools\common\ca\examples directory for a 32-bit operating system
• ~\Program Files (x86)\HP\svctools\common\ca\examples directory for a 64-bit operating
system
2. Enter the following test command for a 32-bit operating system :
~\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\svctools\common\bin> wsea n analyze input <Path of
eva_events.evt >\eva_events.evt not vis
Or enter the following test command on 64-bit operating system:
~\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\svctools\common\bin>wsea n analyze input <Path of
eva_events.evt >\eva_events.evt not vis
In WEBES 5.5 or later versions, that are installed through RSS\RSA, enter the following test
command on 32-bit operating System:
~\Program Files\HP\svctools\common\bin> wsea n analyze input <Path of eva_events.evt
>\eva_events.evt not vis
Or enter the following test command on 64-bit operating system:
~\Program Files (x86)\HP\svctools\common\bin>wsea n analyze input <Path of eva_events.evt
>\eva_events.evt not vis
This will generate several test events, depending on the version of WEBES you are using.
