Compatibility matrix
The following table illustrates the compatibility between the current version of TrueSight Capacity Optimization and Cloud Lifecycle Management.
TrueSight Capacity Optimization version | Cloud Lifecycle Management version | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
4.0 | 4.1 | 4.5 | 4.61 | |
11.0 | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
1 - Supports up to version 4.6.06. For integration with version 4.6.06 of Cloud Lifecycle Management, apply hot fix CHF#007, or later to TrueSight Capacity Optimization. You can download the hot fix from this location.
Before you integrate the features
Before you can configure each of the features mentioned in the preceding section, you need to deploy the Cloud Lifecycle Management integration in TrueSight Capacity Optimization, and configure the appropriate ETL tasks to import Cloud Lifecycle Management data into TrueSight Capacity Optimization.
To perform these operations, you are required to complete the following tasks:
