Verifying the installation of 8.9.02 and later versions

To confirm whether the installation was successful in 8.9.02 and later versions, perform the following tasks:

  • Check whether the Content Deployment utility was run successfully.
  • Log on to Central Management Console and check whether you can see the following items:
    • Choose Folders from the drop-down list. Check whether you can see the BMC Decision Support – BladeLogic Automation Suite > BMC Decision Support – Database Automation folder.
    • Choose Universe from the drop-down list. Check whether you can see the BMC Decision Support – BladeLogic Automation Suite Universes > Database Automation Universe universe.
    • Choose Connections from the drop-down list. In the Connections list, check whether you can see the bds_da_cn connection.

Verifying the installation of versions 8.9.00 and 8.9.01

To confirm whether the installation was successful in versions 8.9.00 and 8.9.01, complete the following checks:

  • Check the log file, named bds_install_log_<timestamp>.txt, in the \Program Files\BMC Software\BL-Decision Support\logs directory to confirm that the installation completed without errors.
  • Click Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools > Task Scheduler to open the Task Scheduler, and confirm that the bds_urgmapper_tsk task is created and running without errors.

After the first time the run_export script is run on the BMC Database Automation Manager, verify that users and groups are being correctly transferred from BMC Database Automation and that they are set up correctly in BMC Decision Support – Database Automation.
