Consider the following information before you begin the integration:
Important! You must upgrade CA Configuration Automation to r12.8 before executing the integration installer.
Note: We recommend that you use the CA Business Intelligence instance where you deployed CA Configuration Automation r12.8 reports, but you can configure this integration on a separate CA Business Intelligence instance if you want.
Important! Do not change the previous CA Cohesion ACM r5.0 MDR definition to turn it into the CA Configuration Automation r12.8 MDR. You must inactivate the r5.0 MDR and create a new r12.8 MDR definition to enable cleanup of unused resources.
Note: If you want to retain both CA Cohesion ACM r5.0 and CA Configuration Automation r12.8 as active MDRs, do not inactivate the CA Cohesion ACM r5.0 MDR.
Note: This MDR defines a URL for launching a CA Configuration Automation CI from CA CMDB.
Note: If you want to execute GRLoader from a remote system that does not have CA CMDB installed, see the Appendix.
Contains the CCA to CMDB Export Group, the CA CMDB Export Report, the BOXI_GRLoader.jar file, the CA Business Intelligence Universe, and the Universe Connection. You import this file to the computer that contains CA Business Intelligence.
Important! You must add users (in CA Business Intelligence) to the CCA to CMDB Export Group who are responsible for executing the CA CMDB Export Report. When you add users to this group, they have full control to access the CA CMDB Export Report, the CCA_CMDB universe, and CCA_CMDB connections on importing the BIAR file. For more information about adding users to groups in CA Business Intelligence, see the CA Business Intelligence r3.2, or r3.3 SP1 Administration Guide.
Contains the SQL Server scripts that create the necessary tables, views, and insert statements to populate the required tables. You execute these scripts on the CA Configuration Automation database.
Contains the Oracle scripts that create the necessary tables, views, and insert statements to populate the required tables. You execute these scripts on the CA Configuration Automation database.
Specifies the WAR file that you deploy in the Web Application Server used by CA Business Intelligence to generate the Prompt Page for the CA CMDB Export Report. This file is deployed on the CA Business Intelligence application server, for example the %BusinessObjects%/tomcat/webapps folder.
Specifies the configuration file for the deployed WAR file. This file is deployed on the CA Business Intelligence server in the %BusinessObjects%/cacaf folder.
(Optional) Consider the following scenarios when configuring the GRLoader environment variables:
