Use the CA Configuration Automation CMDB Integration installer (cca-cmdb.exe) to install the integration components, such as the CA Configuration Automation database connection configuration and the CA Business Intelligence configuration.
Ensure taht you meet the following prerequisites:
Important! Do not install the JDK version 1.6.0_29 version, because of the connectivity issues.
Important! After you complete the installation, restart the CA Business Intelligence Application Server service (such as Tomcat) and the Server Intelligence Agent. Before you restart the Application Server service, delete the CAFApp folder from the CA Business Intelligence webapps directory, for example, C:\Program Files\CA\SC\CommonReporting3\Tomcat55\webapps.
Important! If the CA Configuration Automation Server uses an Oracle database, install the Oracle administrator client on the CA Business Intelligence computer, which lets CA Business Intelligence communicate with the CA Configuration Automation database. You also configure the TNS listener to have an entry that is named "CCA" which points to the CA Configuration Automation database. CA Business Intelligence uses this name as the datasource name to connect to the Oracle database. If you do not perform these steps, the CA CMDB Export report execution fails on Oracle.
If you install CA Business Intelligence 3.3 SP1, then select the webapps directory that is based on the Tomcat6 or Tomcat7 directory PATH.
For example:
Follow these steps:
The CCA CMDB Integration Introduction page appears.
The CCA Database Server page appears.
Specifies the name or the IP address of the server where the CA Configuration Automation database resides. For IPv6 addresses, maximal extended form and maximal abbreviated form addresses are supported. Link local IPv6 addresses are not supported.
Specifies the database listening port number. Accept the default or enter a different port number if you did not use the vendor-recommended default port number when you installed the database software.
SQL Server Default: 1433
Oracle Default: 1521
(SQL Server only) Specifies the database instance name.
(Oracle only) Specifies the Oracle database System Identifier (instance name).
The CCA Database Configuration appears.
Specifies the CA Configuration Automation database name.
Specifies the user name authorized to update the CA Configuration Automation database schema.
Specifies the password for the CA Configuration Automation database user that you specified in the previous field.
Note: Type the password again to verify that you entered it correctly.
The installer verifies the database details by connecting to the database and verifies if it upgraded with the CMDB patch installer.
Note: If the verification fails, an error message directs you to upgrade CA Configuration Automation before configuring the CA CMDB Export report.
The Choose CABI Folder page appears.
C:\Program Files\CA\SC\CommonReporting3
The Choose CABI webapps Folder page appears.
The Configuring CABI page appears.
Specifies the name of the BusinessObjects report server, such as localhost.

Specifies the user name of the CA Business Intelligence report server administrator.
Default: Administrator
Specifies the password of the CA Business Intelligence administrator.
Note: Type the password again to verify that you entered it correctly.
Specifies the System user name that configures the user name of the File System, Program Object, and BOXI_GR Loader (if user selected these options during the installation) objects.
Specifies the password for the System User that configures the password of the File System, Program Object, and BOXI_GR Loader (if you selected these options during the installation) objects.
Note: Type the password again to verify that you entered it correctly.
The Configure Email page appears.
For Email Notifications:
Specifies the domain name of the Email server.
Specifies the host name of the Email server.
