Hi,
I was going through the Redfish EventService schema here: redfish.dmtf.org/schemas/v1/EventService.v1_5_0.json#/definitions/EventService.
In particular, I would like to better understand the utility of the Subscriptions property enclosed within the event service.
My use-case is for a management controller to be able to send out server side events to a remote endpoint.
My understanding is:
- The redfish server on the management controller can implement the EventService schema in order to provide control over what events it needs to publish and how to publish them.
- A remote party that is interested in receiving these events needs to configure the management controller using the Subscriptions property.
- The EventDestination::Destination property can be used to configure the remote server URI.
Can someone on the forum confirm that this understanding is correct?
Secondly, are there plans on appending to the EventDestination::EventDestinationProtocols enum to support, perhaps protocols such as syslog? The use-case being a remote that simply wants to receive
the syslog from the management controller.
Thanks,
Santosh
