Configuring events to process through Business Monitor
Before configuring IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor to emit JMS events to an MQ Broker, first set up your MQ Broker to accept the JMS events to the topic or queue that you want. Then configure IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor to emit the JMS events to the MQ Broker. After you configure this setup, you can then configure the IBM Business Monitor to subscribe to the topic or queue in the MQ Broker and receive the events.
After the events are received in Business Monitor, Monitor Models can be written to consume the events and capture the data you require. In order to configure the components necessary to process through WebSphere, you must have access to an IBM WebSphere MQ or ActiveMQ administrator with the knowledge and authority to set up the MQ Broker as well as an IBM Business Monitor administrator.
