Integration steps

Use of the BMC Continuous Compliance for Network Automation solution requires that the following prerequisites are met:

• BMC Remedy ITSM change management solution is already installed and running at your site in a production environment.
• The Enable TrueSight Orchestration Integration and Enable Continuous Compliance for Network Automation system parameters must be configured. For more information, see Managing system parameters.

• Under Admin > Users, create a user account with the name, ao_adapter. If you create this account with a different name, you need to update the same in TrueSight Orchestration, as described in Configuring-and-enabling-adapters-for-Continuous-Compliance-for-Network-Automation. The username can contain up to 40 alphanumeric characters and must not contain spaces.

  Warning

  Note

  In versions earlier than 20.02, this account is created automatically during installation, in case the user selects the default TrueSight Orchestration user account creation while enabling TrueSight Orchestration Integration during installation. In later versions, you need to create this account manually.
