OpenWay Collection Engine monitors smart meters for electricity, water or gas application. First time user deploying Itron OWCE probe frequently ran into problem in getting the meter event into Omnibus ( strictly speaking in OWCE world, a fault event is called exception ). Most of the time this is about making sure there is a two way open connections between probe machine and OWCE machine. Two way because probe will connect to OWCE web service to subscribe for notification and OWCE will invoke probe web service to submit notification.... [More]

Enrichment event can be defined as event that contained network entity and topology information. In general, there are several event fields that are required in order for event enrichment between OMNIbus and IBM Tivoli Network Manager (ITNM) to take place. These existing OMNIbus object server field can be easily populated in the probe rules file. Therefore, the ingredients (object server fields) for this recipe are as listed in section below. Ingredients @LocalNodeAlias @NmosEventMap @LocalPriObj @LocalRootObj @RemoteNodeAlias The ingredients... [More]
