This topic provides information about CDM mapping for Host nodes.

Host nodes in the Discovery model are mapped to the Common Data Model as shown in this automatically-generated diagram:

This diagram illustrates how the Host nodes in the Discovery model are mapped to the Common Data Model.







The CIs created are described below.

CMDB version differences

The default mapping works with CMDB versions 7.5, 7.6, and 7.6.03 and later. The data model in each is slightly different.

  • BMC_Impact relationships are not normally created with CMDB 7.6.03 and later, since the CMDB automatically maintains them itself. See the information about impact relationships for more details.
  • A number of attributes are not present in CMDB 7.5, as noted below.

Differences from previous versions of BMC Atrium Discovery

Except where noted below, the model populated by BMC Atrium Discovery version 9.0 is the same as that populated by earlier versions.

BMC_ComputerSystem

The root Host node is mapped to a root BMC_ComputerSystem CI with the following attributes:

Name

The fully qualified name of the host if available, otherwise the unqualified name; if no names are available, the IP address

NameFormat

"DNS", "HostName" or "IP"

VirtualSystemType

Workgroup

Host workgroup – the Windows workgroup

Category

Type

Item

TokenId rules

TokenId is an attribute that in some circumstances aids reconciliation of CIs populated by multiple data sources. The following describes how discovery sets TokenId for BMC_ComputerSystem.

For most hosts, TokenId is of the form hostname:DNS domain name.

For some virtual hosts, TokenId contains a UUID:

  1. For VMware, TokenId is of the form "VI-UUID:ABCD-EF-GH-IJ-KLMNOP". Where each letter represents a hexadecimal digit.
  2. For Hyper-V, TokenId is of the form "HYPERV-ID:ABCD-EF-GH-IJ-KLMNOP". With Hyper-V, the UUID is only available on the physical machine, so TokenId is only set for virtual machines that have been successfully linked to their hosting physical machines.
  3. For Xen (including Oracle VM), TokenId is of the form "XEN-ID:ABCD-EF-GH-IJ-KLMNOP".
  4. For KVM (including RedHat Enterprise Virtualization), TokenId is of the form "KVM-ID:ABCD-EF-GH-IJ-KLMNOP".

BMC_OperatingSystem

The root Host is also mapped to a single BMC_OperatingSystem CI, with the following attributes:

BMC_Processor

The root Host is mapped to a number of BMC_Processor CIs.

  • For physical machines, the number of CIs corresponds to the number of physical CPU packages present in the machine.
  • For virtual machines, the number of CIs corresponds to the number of logical CPUs the operating system is scheduling across.

In some circumstances, it is not possible to discover the number of physical CPU packages in a physical machine. In such cases, no BMC_Processor CIs are created for the machine.

All the BMC_Processor CIs for a host are normally identical to each other. New in BMC Atrium Discovery 8.3, they can be different in cases that a physical machine has more than one type of CPU.

BMC_NetworkPort, BMC_IPEndpoint and BMC_LANEndpoint

Each NetworkInterface node connected to the root Host in the Discovery model is mapped to a BMC_NetworkPort, and its MAC address is mapped to a BMC_LANEndpoint. Each of its associated IP addresses are mapped to BMC_IPEndpoint CIs.

Where Discovery has been able to connect a NetworkInterface to a NetworkDevice (via associated port nodes), a BMC_Dependency relationship is created between the two BMC_ComputerSystem CIs representing the host and the network device.

BMC_VirtualSystemEnabler and virtualization

When a physical machine hosts one or more virtual machines, the Discovery model represents it as a number of SoftwareInstance nodes related to the physical Host, one SoftwareInstance per virtual host. In the CDM, the BMC_ComputerSystem corresponding to the physical machine has a BMC_HostedSystemComponents relationship to a single BMC_VirtualSystemEnabler CI. (Strictly speaking, it is one per technology, so a physical machine running more than one virtualization technology could have more than one BMC_VirtualSystemEnabler CI.)

BMC_SoftwareServer and BMC_ApplicationSystem

Each SoftwareInstance in the Discovery model is mapped to either a BMC_SoftwareServer CI or a BMC_ApplicationSystem CI:

  • SoftwareInstance nodes with DDD triggers are directly running on a single host, and are mapped to BMC_SoftwareServer
  • SoftwareInstance nodes composed of other SoftwareInstance nodes are mapped to BMC_ApplicationSystem.

Note that SoftwareInstance nodes are also mapped (in an indirect manner) to BMC_Product.

Except as noted, the attributes set are the same in BMC_SoftwareServer and BMC_ApplicationSystem.

Version 8.2 mapped all SoftwareInstance nodes to BMC_SoftwareServer. Version 8.1 mapped those SoftwareInstances containing other SoftwareInstances to BMC_ApplicationInfrastructure.

Version 8.1 always hard-coded Item to "BMC Discovered".

BMC_SoftwareServer or BMC_ApplicationSystem

BMC_SoftwareServer or BMC_ApplicationSystem

As shown in the table, BMC_SoftwareServer and BMC_ApplicationSystem CIs can be related to each other with a BMC_Dependency relationship. This is mapped from both Dependency and Communication relationships between the SoftwareInstance nodes in the Discovery model.

BMC_SoftwareServer and BMC_ApplicationSystem CIs also have relationships to BMC_Product, shown in the table below.

BMC_Product

BMC_Product represents the installed aspects of a product. BMC Atrium Discovery uses SoftwareInstance nodes and associated metadata to provide an accurate picture of the installed products, regardless of how the products are installed. The mapping groups the SoftwareInstance nodes according to the product information on the maintaining patterns, and maintains one BMC_Product CI for each unique product version on the Host. SoftwareInstance nodes with different types can belong to a single product. So, for example, a server running four Oracle database instances and one Oracle TNS Listener would have five SoftwareInstance nodes; those five SoftwareInstances would map to a single "Oracle Database" BMC_Product CI.

  1. Unknown User (petrus.johansson@ikea.com)

    I see that HBAs of a Host node is missing from the mapping table above.

    1. That's correct. This is a special case for BMC_NetworkPort CI creation based on FibreChannelHBA and FibreChannelPort nodes attributes.

      1. Unknown User (petrus.johansson@ikea.com)

        So it shouldn´t be documented, is that what you are saying?

        1. No, it should. It's just a question of writing it elegantly.

          1. Unknown User (petrus.johansson@ikea.com)

            Come to think IF it...shouldnt the 'Item' attributen be 'Fibrer Channel Port' instead IF 'Fibrer cannl HBA port' since it is a sanswitch port?
