Configuring EAA

Overview

Embedded Automation Architecture (EAA) is a monitoring framework that enables you to self-define

monitored events and actions to take in response to an event. It allows you to create monitor policies by
using the CLI or Tcl scripts.

EAA framework

EAA framework includes a set of event sources, a set of event monitors, a real-time event manager (RTM),
and a set of user-defined monitor policies, as shown in

Figure 64

.

Event sources

Event sources are software or hardware modules that produce events (see

Figure 64

). For example, the

CLI module produces an event when you enter a command, and the Syslog module (the information
center) produces an event when it receives a log message.

Event monitors

EAA creates one event monitor for a monitor policy to monitor the system for the event specified in the

policy. An event monitor notifies the RTM to run the monitor policy when the monitored event occurs.
