Registering the components with the Presentation Server

1. In the TrueSight console, go to Administration > Components, select the action menu next to Components, and select Add Component.

2. Select Infrastructure Management Server as the component type.

3. Enter a valid Host Name in the FQDN format.

   Notes

   • If you have installed TrueSight Infrastructure Management in the high-availability or disaster recovery mode, ensure that you specify a common alias name for both the primary and secondary servers.
   • If the "Invalid Host Name or IP Address" message appears, re-enter a valid FQDN hostname. The name cannot start or end with a dash ( - ), contain any spaces, or exceed 63 characters.
   • Adding an IP address of the TrueSight Infrastructure Management Server is no longer supported. With an IP address, the cross-launch to the TrueSight Infrastructure Management from the TrueSight console fails. Therefore, you must edit the hostnames of all the Infrastructure Management Servers that were added in the past after you upgrade the TrueSight Presentation Server.
   • In an Infrastructure Management Server high-availability deployment, ensure that the configured cluster name and host names of the primary and secondary Infrastructure Management servers are resolved with the proper FQDN host name and reachable from the computer that hosts the TrueSight Presentation Server.
     
4. Select the protocol.

5. Accept the default port number (443), or enter a new value.

6. Select any of the listed tenants.
   The list includes all the tenants defined in the Remedy Single Sign-On system.

7. Enter a value between 1 and 10 for the Component Initialization Timeout (minutes) period.
   This is the time period for which the TrueSight Presentation Server tries to initialize a connection to the component. If the connection is not completed within this time, the connection fails.

   Tip

   If the Infrastructure Management server contains a large number of groups, set the Component Initialization Timeout (minutes) period to 5 minutes.

8. Clear the Propagate Events box to stop propagation of events from the Infrastructure Management server to the TrueSight Presentation Server.

   Note

   To enable propagation of events at a later time, delete the Infrastructure Management server and re-add it with the Propagate Events box checked.

9. Click Save.

Add an App Visibility portal for each tenant that you monitor with the TrueSight console. In a high-availability environment, the connection to a portal is through its load-balancing server.

In an integrated system, to see the App Visibility events in the TrueSight console, associate the App Visibility portal with an Infrastructure Management Server cell.

1. In the TrueSight console, go to Administration > Components, select the action menu next to Components, and select Add Component.

2. Select App Visibility Portal as the component type.

     These settings are for the administration cell of an Infrastructure Management Server that is connected to the Presentation Server, or a remote cell that is connected to the administration cell of an Infrastructure Management Server that in turn is connected to the TrueSight Presentation Server. Only customized cells connected to an Infrastructure Management Server 10.x or later are supported.

   Data Collectors for Event Analytics

   For event analytics the Data Collectors are automatically created when IT Data Analytics is registered with the Presentation Server. The Data Collectors are created only when the Infrastructure Management server has been registered with the Presentation Server. The name of the Data Collector created is in this format <DC_TSPS_TSIM_TSIMCellname>. This can be viewed from TrueSight IT Data Analytics > Administration > Data Collectors. These Data Collectors are created for collecting the events from the Presentation Server. For the automatically created Data Collectors, Admin, Appadmin, and Troubleshooter roles have permissions to search on the Data Collectors.

   The Index block used for this type of Data Collector is large Index block and by default it is set to 30 days.

   The collection station used for this Data Collector is the first collection station available in the database. The data collectors created are in the started state by default, which is configurable. For more information see Modifying the configuration files.

   Note

   If you remove the IT Data Analytics or the Infrastructure Management server from the Presentation Server, this Data Collector is automatically removed from the IT Data Analytics server.
