2573933 - How to monitor metadata stream events using a project - SAP Event Stream Processor

• An SAP Event Stream Processor (ESP) project is running as a "watchdog" project.
• To get metadata stream events from the client project into the watchdog project, the command (below) uses:
  • the "streamingsubscribe" ESP utility, to subscribe to the metadata stream in the client project.
  • the "sed" command, to convert the XML tag name and make sure all the events are inserts (for use with normal streams).
  • the "streamingconvert" and "streamingupload" ESP utilities, to upload the events to the watchdog project.

streamingsubscribe -c studio:pass -p localhost:9786/default/simple -s _ESP_Streams_Monitor | sed -e 's/_ESP_Streams_Monitor/inStreamsMonitor/g;s/ESP_OPS="u"/ESP_OPS="i"/g' | streamingconvert -c studio:pass -p localhost:9786/default/metadatain -m "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" | streamingupload -p localhost:9786/default/metadatain -c studio:pass

• After executing the (above) command, data does not get received by the watchdog project, and after thirteen minutes, the following error appears on the screen:

convert: Error getting stream handle from server or configFile for stream: | inStreamsMonitor |

you are not authorized to do this operation
upload: 4 bytes read, 8 written.
upload: 0 records processed.
upload:      in 751.686 seconds.
sed: couldn't write 433 items to stdout: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character

• The only way to get the commands to succeed is to split up the command as follows:

streamingsubscribe -c user:pass -e -p myhost:19011/default/my_client_project -s _ESP_Connectors | sed -e 's/_ESP_Connectors/inStream/g;s/ESP_OPS="u"/ESP_OPS="i"/g' > myfile

cat myfile | streamingconvert -c user:pass -e -p myhost:19011/default/watchdog | streamingupload -c user:pass -e -p myhost:19011/default/watchdog

• How to implement in ESP to get metadata stream data from the client project into the "watchdog" project in real-time, rather than through using file convert and upload utilities?
