Overview of the BMC BladeLogic Client Automation Configuration Discovery Integration for CMDB program

BMC BladeLogic Client Automation Configuration Discovery Integration for CMDB (CDI) moves your data from BMC BladeLogic Client Automation into the CMDB for you by using AIE. It sets up the BBCA CMDB dataset as a data source for the BMC Atrium Normalization Engine which enables you to create Product Catalog entries. Your Product Catalog is automatically populated with the software that is in use in your environment.

For more information on Product Catalog, see Overview of the BMC Atrium Core Product Catalog

CDI enables the transfer of data from the BMC BladeLogic Client Automation Inventory database to the BMC Atrium CMDB. The integration program has no interface other than the installation program that installs the following components:

  • A set of views on top of the Inventory database
  • Data exchanges and data mappings in the BMC Atrium Integration Engine console for the CI classes and relationship classes that are discoverable by the Scanner Service
  • Federated links for BMC BladeLogic Client Automation
  • Reconciliation definitions in the Reconciliation Engine for use during the identification phase
