Starting the TEC Adapter and SyMONInt Applications Separately

Under certain conditions, you might need to start the TEC Adapter and the SyMONInt applications separately. For example:

• One of the processes dies.

• You need to change the filtering criteria for an event. In this instance, you would restart the SyMONInt process only.

If you are starting the applications separately, you must start the TEC Adapter before the SyMONInt spplication.

The tecad_symon command opens a socket to the SyMONInt application and accepts Tivoli-ready event strings.

1. Set the Tivoli environment.

   If you are running the Bourne shell, type the following command:
