TIBCO Hawk:

TIBCO Hawk is a monitoring tool which is used to manage distributed applications running across multiple servers or multiple geographic. you can use TIBCO hawk for reading log files and can have rules based upon certain keyword e.g. ERROR or Exception and when such word comes in log file it will alert the TIBCO hawk GUI also called TIBCO HAWK Display.

Hawk Agent:

This is the most important part of whole TIBCO Hawk suite and has to be deployed in all host you would like to monitor. So a Hawk agent is a TIBCO Hawk process which performs all the monitoring and management tasks on the host as defined in the rulebase. For example TIBCO Hawk Agent can look for certain words e.g. ERROR or Exception and when such word comes in log file it will alert the TIBCO hawk GUI.

Hawk Rulebase and Rules:

In General a TIBCO Hawk Rule is a user defined rule for monitoring application which involves one or more data sources (micro agents) and check for specific conditions and takes one or more actions based upon those conditions. a hawk rulebase is simply collection of one or more hawk rules.

Hawk Monitor (Dispaly):

TIBCO hawk monitor is a console application which shows a graphical view of all managed hosts and objects and enables interacting with them. Its like a GUI screen where you can see the status of different managed host, it uses color coding to highlight status e.g. if a process is up and there is no error then it shows that in green color while if a process is down or there are any errors it shows color. Other than green e.g. RED. The console API allows development of customized hawk display application based upon needs o monitoring team.

Flexible Rule based monitoring:

Rule based monitoring allows TIBCO hawk to configure advanced and sophisticated rules based on different behaviors of different applications.TIBCO hawk not only generates alerts and actions but also provides advanced features to implement solutions such as automatic restarting of application processes, creating escalating actions in response to a deteriorating problem taking an action when an alert clears and automatically alerting monitoring behavior based on user defined schedules.
