Event Monitoring Service Release Notes

As and when required EMS will provide defect fixes via AR/OEUR media. In case of critical
defects in the EMS Framework (EventMonitoring bundle only), that impair the system/dependent
product functioning, the fix will be made available via Web Release, which happens once every
month. The fix will be made available as an installable product upgrade and can be downloaded
from the HP Software Depot web site at https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/
try.do?productNumber=EventMonitoring. Such fixes will be included in the EMS product on
the AR/OEUR media at a minimum of once each year.
In the support mode the following is applicable:
No new EMS Monitors will be developed. Customers are encouraged to develop WBEM
provider based monitors using the SysFaultMgmt framework rather than developing EMS
monitors.
Monitoring for new platforms will be accomplished through WBEM based monitoring only
using the SysFaultMgmt Product.
EMS Developers Kit will no longer be shipped with HP-UX 11i v3.
