Event Monitoring Service overview
Event Monitoring Service (EMS) is a system monitoring application designed to facilitate real-time monitoring
and error detection for HP products in the enterprise environment. This framework provides centralized
management of hardware systems and system resources and provides immediate notification of hardware
failures and system status.
HP EMS reports information that helps you detect loss of redundant resources, thus exposing single points
of failure and eliminating the threat to data and application availability. HP EMS capabilities cover the entire
system: system components, storage, and network interfaces.
To access the Event Monitoring Services in HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM), select Diagnose→Event
Monitoring Service.
