Forwarding an event to the Tivoli Enterprise Console®

You can use the event handler notification method, Forward event to Tivoli Enterprise Console®, to allow the Tivoli Enterprise Console® (TEC) to receive Domino® events and reformat them as TEC events. The reformatted TEC event is then sent to the TEC server that you specify in the Configuration Settings document.
