Registering the Terremark Provider instance

Before BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management can use a third-party resource provider, you must first register an instance of that resource provider.

When you register the Terremark Provider instance, you specify configuration values that enable the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Terremark Provider instance to communicate with the external Terremark Enterprise Cloud provider. Typically this configuration is a one-time task in the infrastructure configuration process.
