The CA MDM Asset Integration solution involves a utility to import MDM Asset Data which is invoked by CA MDM Asset Integration Engine task. This utility uses MDM Web Services APIs and connects using HTTP/HTTPS. It fetches Asset data from MDM Server and generates Asset Collector compatible XIU files and places in the configured location. By default the configuration files are available at the below path:
CA\DSM\Bin\resources\config
Client Automation Integration for MDM is fully configurable and Extendable. You can configure and extend the XML files as necessary to accommodate new devices, schema changes, add and delete inventory fields, nodes, tables and inventory mapping changes.
Following are the types of XML files that Client Automation Asset Integration for MDM uses for generating asset inventory:
Includes the configuration to process and generate asset XIU file for each supported device type.
