Abstract: A distributed computer environment (DCE) is disclosed that provides event globalizing of at least one event at one server in the DCE to other servers within said DCE as well as maintains a record of specific event activity over the DCE. The maintenance of the records is performed by storing a global event file comprising a list of events and a corresponding list of servers in order to identify which of the servers should receive which events, storing a local event registry comprising a list of events and a corresponding list of local event consumers in order to identify which of the local event consumers should receive which events, identifying specific events within the list of events to be monitored for a specific purpose, monitoring said specific events as they occur over the DCE, notifying a specific local event consumer of the occurrence of the specific events, and recording a log of event activity involving only the specific events.

Abstract: A system in method for global event notification in a distributed computer environment is presented. The system and method utilizes a local event registry to identify local event consumers that should be notified when an event occurs. The system and method also utilizes a global event registry which identifies other servers which need notification when an event occurs. These other servers will then, in turn, notify their local event consumers of the event. The system and method incorporates multiple levels of filtering to allow event consumers to remove notification of events having little or no interest. The system and method also ensures that duplicate event notifications are not received for the same event.
