Registering resource providers

Failed to execute the [bmc-contextid] macro.

Before BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management can use a resource provider, you must first register an instance of that resource provider. For overview information, see Resource-provider-overview.

The default provider instances are registered while running the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management installation program and do not need to be registered again. Only new resource providers, including new instances of current resource providers, custom resource providers, and third-party resource providers, need to be registered using this procedure.

Note

To create a provider instance, see ProviderDefinition-class.

To register a provider

  1. From the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Administration Console, click the vertical Workspaces menu on the left side of the window and select Providers.
  2. On the Providers page, click the Register icon plus_button.gif.
  3. In the Register Provider dialog box, choose the Provider Type.

    The macro unmigrated-inline-wiki-markup from Confluence is no longer available.

  4. To continue provider registration, choose one of the following procedures, depending on the provider you selected:

After you register a resource provider, you can then onboard resources from that provider as described in Editing-and-removing-resources.
