(optional) Step 6. Sending events to a BMC Impact Manager cell

Specifying BA displays the Event Action BEIM - event type panel which allows you to send events from MainView AutoOPERATOR to a BMC Impact Manager cell or other BMC products with a cell adaptor.

Note

This panel appears only if you have specified PRODUCT=IIZ in BBPARM member BBISSP00.

For more information about customization steps that must be completed to send MainView AutoOPERATOR events to a BMC Impact Manager cell, refer to Chapter 19, 'Implementing the MainView AutoOPERATOR Interface to BMC Impact Manager' in the MainView AutoOPERATOR Customization Guide.

Use this panel to:

specify event data that the Rule sends to a BMC Impact Manager cell or other BMC products with a cell adaptor

Any event type can be sent to a BMC Impact Manager cell or other BMC products with a cell adaptor except IBM MQ non-event type messages. IBM MQ instrumentation events can be sent.
specify whether the Rule write event diagnostic information to the BBI Journal
specify targets to the send the event to
specify a new class name to be associated with the slots and values
specify a severity to be associated with the event
specify a component alias for event correlation against objects in the Service Impact Model (SIM)

For information about fields on this panel, refer to Event Action — BEIM fields.

The following figure shows an example of the panel for the event type MSG.
