Monitoring HL7 External System Connection Status : Inbound Mode

This feature describes monitoring the external system connection status from the Enterprise Manager GUI when the HL7 Adapter is deployed in an inbound mode.

• HL7 Adapter emr plugin is extended to provide the monitoring external system connection status

• Provision is included in the Enterprise Manager GUI for monitoring the HL7 external system connection status

• Click the Monitor HL7 External Connection link. The user will see all the external systems (HL7 clients) connected to the HL7 inbound adapter (HL7 Server)

• When the connection with the external system is lost, its status information will not appear in the status table shown in the Enterprise Manager GUI.
