Changing the event consumption mode

You can use the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console to change the event consumption mode for a version of a monitor model.

Before you begin

Before you begin this task, you must log in to the WebSphere Application Server administrative console.

About this task

The event consumption mode is a combination of the state of the monitor model and the transport type. Monitor models have one of the following event consumption modes:
  • CreateNewInstances: Events are processed and new monitoring context instances can be created as a result.
  • UpdateExistingInstancesOnly: Events for existing monitoring context instances are processed, but events that would create new root monitoring context instances are ignored.
  • InactiveSaveEvents: Events are saved for a future monitor model version to process. The events are not processed by the current monitor model version.
  • Inactive: Events are not distributed to this monitor model version.

Procedure

  1. In the WebSphere Application Server administrative console, click Applications > Monitor Models.
  2. Click the version of the model whose event consumption mode you want to change.
  3. Click Change event consumption mode.
  4. Under Target, select how the version is to be configured to receive and process events.
  5. Click Apply or OK.
