Configuring BMC ProactiveNet cell to get BMC Atrium CMDB configuration items for performance reports

The BMC Atrium CMDB attributes and their values are retrieved from the BMC ProactiveNet cell. You must configure the BMC ProactiveNet cell to get the BMC Atrium CMDB attributes of configuration items (CIs) from the BMC ProactiveNet cell. Perform the following steps to get the BMC Atrium CMDB CIs from BMC ProactiveNet cell.

1. Specify the location and port number of BMC ProactiveNet Reporting Engine in the mcell.dir file. For more information, see To add the BMC ProactiveNet Report Engine gateway entry in the mcell.dir file.
2. You must subscribe the BMC ProactiveNet cell for CIs to get propagated to Report Engine. For more information on subscribing the BMC ProactiveNet cell, see Configuring the BMC ProactiveNet cell for impact reporting.
3. Stop the Reporting Engine service.
4. In Administration view, Dynamic Editor tab, expand the cell_name folder. For example, pncell_clm-pun-000733.
5. In the cell_name folder, select all data > Notification registry internal > Notification registry, and delete the notification registry for that Reporting Engine.
6. Logon to the computer that has Reporting Engine installed and navigate to one of the following directories:
   
   • (Windows) BMCProactiveNetReportEngineInstallDir\bin\reportsCLI
   • (Solaris) BMCProactiveNetReportEngineInstallDir/bin/reportsCLI
7. To disable the summarization of Availability, MTTR, MTBF, MTBSI, and Losses, run the summarize_flag CLI command. For exmaple, summarize_flag - disbale. For more information, see summarize_flag-command.
