Managing Third-Party Event Brokers in VAST Web UI

You can view, add, edit and delete event brokers in the Notification Kafka Brokers tab in cluster notification settings (Settings -> Notifications -> Notification Kafka Brokers).

To add an event broker to the cluster:

Go to Settings -> Notifications -> Notification Kafka Brokers.

Click Add a New Kafka Broker and complete these fields:

Name	Enter a name for the event broker configuration.
Tenant	Select one tenant for which the event broker will be available, or leave the default of All tenants so that the broker is available for all tenants.
Host	Enter the bootstrap URL of the event broker server. You can specify an IP or FQDN. If the Kafka cluster runs multiple event brokers, click +Add to add more hosts. You can add up to five hosts.
Port	Enter a port to communicate with the event broker server.

Tip
Ensure that the hosts are accessible from the VAST cluster's management interface at the specified ports.

Click Add Kafka Broker.
The newly created event broker configuration is added to the list of event brokers.

To edit or remove an event broker, right-click it and choose Edit or Remove.
