How CA Common Service Components are Installed

CA Automation Point incorporates CA Common Services (CCS) to provide connectivity to CA NSM Event Management, CA NSM WorldView, and CA OPS/MVS. Selecting any of these options automatically installs the relevant CCS components.

When selecting CA NSM Event Manager and/or CA NSM WorldView, either establish a connection to a previously created remote CA NSM repository database, or create a local CA NSM repository database during the CA Automation Point installation. CA OPS/MVS EMA does not require a database connection.

The CA Automation Point installation program always successfully completes the installation of a CA Automation Point server before it installs any CCS components. When an error occurs while installing CCS components, the CA Automation Point server is unable to use the connections to the CCS components, but will be otherwise operational.

If CCS installation errors occur, you can reinstall the CCS components without having to completely reinstall CA Automation Point. From a Windows command prompt, type the following command:

ccsReinstall

This program asks for the path of the CA Automation Point DVD, and which companion product interfaces you want to install.
