Monitor the World - Yours, Anyway.
The scalability of ELM is almost unlimited. You may
be managing multiple systems spread across a few buildings, a few states or a
few countries, but you can see the events from all of those systems at one
console. Here's how:
The Forward Event Notification Method is used to
forward an event from one ELM Server to another.
-
Right-click on the Notification container in the ELM Console and select New |
Notification Method. The Create Notification Method Wizard will appear. Click
Next to continue.
-
Select Forward Event from the Notification Method dropdown and click Next to
continue. The ELM Server Computer Name dialog box will appear.
-
In the TCP Port field, enter the port on which the upstream server is
listening. By default, ELM Servers listen on TCP port 1251.
-
Click the Add button to add an upstream server. The Select Computer dialog box
will appear. You may manually enter the server name in the Computer Name field
or browse the network and select the server. Click OK to add the server. Repeat
this step for each upstream server you wish to add.
-
Click the Test button for each ELM Server added to verify connectivity.
-
Click Next to continue.
-
The Notification Rule dialog box will appear. Put a checkmark next to each Rule
for which this Notification Method should be triggered. Click Next to continue.
-
The Threshold dialog box will appear. You can specify one of two thresholds:
-
"Disable this notification method when it is triggered" - If the Notification
Method is triggered the configured number of times within the specified time
period, the notifications will stop. The Notification Method is re-enabled
after the time period specified.
-
"Activate this notification method after it is triggered" (default) - When this
threshold is selected, the notifications will not be processed unless the rule
is triggered the specified number of times within the time period selected.
-
If you don't want to be notified for cached data, check the "Disable this
notification method for all Cached (old) data." box.
-
Click Next to continue.
-
The Schedule dialog box will appear. Use your mouse to configure the hours and
days you want this Notification Method active (default: all days, all hours).
Click Next to continue.
-
The Name and Describe Notification Method dialog will appear. Enter a unique
name and (optional) description for this Notification Method; check the
"Enabled" box (checked by default).
-
Click Finish to save this Notification Method.
Note: You cannot edit an ELM server after it is added
to this Notification Method. If you wish to edit an entry, you must first
remove the entry (using the Remove button) and then re-add the correct entry.
Now you can see Events from the Wichita office!
Texas Hold-em Tournament a Favorite at TechMentor
TNT Software’s Texas Hold’em Tournament was at the top
of attendees’ “must do” list at TechMentor in Orlando, FL from March 20 - 24.
“People were waiting to register for the tournament at the booth area as we set
up,” said Brent Skadsen, General Manager of TNT Software.
The six-table Shoot-Out was held on Tuesday night.
Winners advanced to the Final Table on Wednesday afternoon. “We had a great
turnout…everyone had a good time,” added Skadsen.
John Lukavsky of Thomas M. Cooley Law School finally
walked away with top honors and a 500 count poker set with case. The second
place winner, David Bowman of Tri-Star Engineering, Inc took home a 300 count
poker set with case, and third place winner, Bill Ferguson of Parallel
Connexions, won Copag Plastic Playing Cards.
TNT Software thanks John, David, Bill and all who
participated. We look forward to seeing you next year.

It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after
the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead
he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar
based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the
honeymoon.
