Embedded Event Manager 2.

Embedded Event Manager (EEM) is a flexible, policy-driven framework that supports in-box monitoring
of different system components with the help of software agents known as event detectors. EEM 2.2
introduces the enhanced object tracking, resource, and redundancy framework (RF) event detectors. The
enhanced object tracking event detector publishes an event when the tracked object changes. Enhanced
object tracking provides complete separation between the objects to be tracked and the action to be taken
by a client when a tracked object changes. The resource event detector publishes an event when the
Embedded Resource Manager (ERM) reports an event for the specified policy. The RF event detector
publishes an event when one or more RF events occur during synchronization in a dual Route Processor
(RP) system. The RF event detector can also detect an event when a dual RP system continuously
switches from one RP to another RP (referred to as a ping-pong situation). EEM 2.2 also introduces the
following actions:
• Reading the state of a tracked object
• Setting the state of a tracked object
