acknowledgement from the event server. The default value is 30
seconds. This keyword works with the GatewayTMEAckEnabled
keyword for event delivery.
GatewayQueueSize
Specifies, in bytes, the size for the buffers containing events
waiting to be forwarded to event servers. If any of these buffers fill
before the expiration of the GatewaySendInterval option, the
waiting events are immediately sent.
The default is 40 000 bytes.
GatewaySendInterval
Specifies, in seconds, the interval to forward events to event
servers. The gateway holds events when they are received, and
then bundles them up and forwards them in a message to the
appropriate event server when this interval expires.
The default is five seconds.
GatewayTMEAckEnabled
When set to YES, connection-oriented, TME connections expect an
acknowledgement from the event server before the gateway
discards the sent events. Use this keyword to ensure the event
delivery. The default value is NO.
MaxGWCacheSizeMegs
Specifies the maximum size in megabytes that the cache file can
grow to. By default, the maximum size of the cache is 1 MB. The
keyword does not appear in the configuration file.
RetryInterval When events cannot be sent to an event server, the gateway waits
the specified number of seconds before connecting to a secondary
server. While the gateway is waiting for the expiration of this
interval, new events continue to be received by the gateway and
are buffered in memory (and cached to disk as necessary). You can
adjust the size of the gateway memory queues for adapters with
the GatewayQueueSize keyword.
The RetryInterval option allows adapters to send all events to the
primary event server even if the primary event server is stopped
briefly, such as when loading a new rule base. If you use this
option to wait for the restarting of an event server, set the value for
a period of time longer than needed for the event server to be
stopped and restarted.
The RetryInterval keyword is optional.
ServerLocation
Specifies a default event server location to be used if adapters do
not specify a server location in an event instance. If ServerLocation
is specified in the configuration file for an adapter, that location is
passed from the adapter to the gateway as part of the event, and
the gateway forwards the event to the adapter-specified event
server. If ServerLocation is not specified in an adapter
configuration file, the gateway sends the events for that adapter to
the event server specified with the ServerLocation keyword. If
ServerLocation
is not specified in the gateway configuration file,
the gateway sends the event to the event server in the local Tivoli
management region.
