CMDB plug-ins
Plug-in Name and Description | Used By |
|---|---|
Atrium-Integrator-Pentaho-plug-in This plug-in connects and interacts with the AR System server by using the Action Request System Java APIs. It enables AR System or BMC Helix ITSM application users to run and monitor Atrium Integrator jobs and transformations from AR System vendor forms. | AR System server |
This plug-in is used to support the create, read, update, and delete operations on instances in the deprecated classes in BMC Helix CMDB. | CMDB |
Dynamic-Service-Modeling-plug-in The Dynamic Service Modeling (DSM) plug-in periodically queries the CMDB to see if there are any new configuration items (CIs) or modified CIs that meet the criteria in the saved queries. If a matching CI is found, a relationship is created to relate it to the business or technical service CI. | CMDB |
This plug-in provides a mechanism for notifying changes to the CIs that are stored in BMC Helix CMDB. | CMDB |
Federated Data Plug-ins (JDBC and AR) The federated data plug-ins use adapters to connect an external source of data to BMC Helix CMDB. The Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) adapter enables configurations managers to federate data from any JDBC-compliant database. The AR adapter enables federation of data from forms on any AR System servers. | CMDB |
The CMDB Impact Simulator (AIS.FILTERAPI) plug-in is responsible for handling commands from the user interface, organizing the simulation information, and creating results. It is responsible for querying the CMDB for all the components and relationships and calculating the impact of the simulation. | CMDB |
The Normalization Engine plug-in (BMC.FILTERAPI.NORM.ENGINE) normalizes instances by using the product catalog data. Based on the product catalog entry, it normalizes the Category, Type, and Item values of a CI. | CMDB |
The applications that rely on a CI and relationship data stored in the BMC Helix CMDB use this plug-in to detect whether CIs and relationships have been added, changed, or deleted. | CMDB |
This plug-in is the logic that supports the Service Context. Service Context collects key attributes from several BMC applications and provides that information in a consistent and summarized format. | CMDB |
Unified-Service-Modeling-plug-in The Unified Service Modeling (USM) plug-in provides an interface for working with business services. It provides an interface for AR System applications, such as and BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management to access USM-related features through the vendor form. | CMDB |
