Configuring Platform Manager JSON to work with the Cloud Portal Web Application (clmui) URL
With Small or Medium deployments, the PreferenceGroup.json file – located by default at C:\Program Files\BMC Software\BMCCloudLifeCycleManagement\Platform_Manager\configuration\preferences (Windows) or /opt/bmc/BMCCloudLifeCycleManagement/Platform_Manager/configuration/preferences (Linux) – does not get automatically updated to include the Cloud Portal Web Application URL parameters.
There are at least two reasons for this behavior:
- You can use the install planner to install Platform Manager and Cloud Portal Web Application (clmui) at different times
- You can install Cloud Portal Web Application (clmui) with the standalone installer on an external host
As a result, you must configure the Cloud Portal Web Application (clmui) URL by editing the PreferenceGroup.json file on the Platform Manager host.
Note
To modify PreferenceGroup.json file on Platform Manager
- Make a backup copy of the installDirectory\Platform_Manager\configuration\preferences\PreferenceGroup.json file for editing.
- Open the original PreferenceGroup.json file for editing.
Locate the following lines, and update the value line with the correct Cloud Portal Web Application host name and port number, for example https://clm-lab-test:8443/clmui/.
{ "cloudClass": "com.bmc.cloud.model.beans.PreferenceGroupNameValuePair", "guid": "98d27d82-44fc-41c8-bde0-007f0fa8fc2f", "name": "clmui base URL", "preferenceGroup" : "/preferencegroup/ffd5922e-68fd-4970-83b0-2c47641402d1", "value": "https://clm-aus-009767:8443/clmui" }
Restart Platform Manager.
