Event Integration Through Messages
This section describes in more detail the various methods provided by
the VPO GUI that can be used to generate an integration package.
Configuring Messages in the Message Source
Templates Window
Any problem that causes the partner solution to generate an error
message, should also trigger a VPO message. When correctly configured,
message templates guarantee that VPO operators are always informed
about problems when they occur in the partner solution.
The templates for all message sources, including threshold monitors, are
listed in the Message Source Templates window. The windows used to
create, or modify templates for the various sources can all be accessed
from this window, as shown in Figure 3-1. The Add/Modify <Template>
windows differ slightly for each source, but the concepts involved in
defining templates are similar.
