The BMC ProactiveNet Publishing Server is an application that publishes a service model to the BMC ProactiveNet Server Cell. The publishing server performs the following functions:
This information is then used to visualize the impact to a service and to automatically open Intelligent Incidents that contain information about the failed or failing IT components and services it impacts for further prioritizataion and faster troubleshooting
The BMC ProactiveNet Publishing Server receives notification from BMC Atrium CMDB about changes made to service models in BMC Impact Model Designer.
The publishing server retrieves the data from BMC Atrium CMDB and publishes the components to the BMC ProactiveNet Server cell. You can visualize components through the BMC ProactiveNet Administration Console, and the BMC ProactiveNet Operations Console.
The following diagram illustrates the publication workflow showing the various BMC Atrium CMDB and BMC ProactiveNet components and how they interact
