Register UC Monitor as a Data Source

To centralize the management of groups, users, and roles, and to view UC Monitor data in CA Performance Center, register UC Monitor as a data source for CA Performance Center. The process of registering the data source automatically integrates user and role management.

You can register up to four UC Monitor data sources with one CA Performance Center instance. The UC Monitor data views in CA Performance Center represent aggregated data from all UC Monitor data sources.

You use the CA Performance Center console to register data sources.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to CA Performance Center as a Default Tenant (global) Administrator.
  2. Click Admin, Data Source Settings, Data Sources on the navigation bar.

    The Manage Data Sources page displays the current list of registered data sources.

  3. Click New.

    The Data Source Administration dialog opens.

  4. Select Unified Communications Monitor from the Source Type list.
  5. Enter the Host Name of the UC Monitor server on which the database is installed.

    The hostname is the IP address or DNS hostname of the server. For data sources in a distributed configuration, supply the hostname of the management console.

  6. Select the Protocol and Port for the CA Performance Center web service to use to contact the corresponding UC Monitor Web Service. By default, HTTP over port 80 is used. Use HTTPS and port 443 if your network is using SSL for communications.
  7. (Optional) Provide a Display Name that identifies the data source. If you are registering multiple UC Monitor data sources, you can change the default data source names to help identify them in CA Performance Center.
  8. Confirm whether the Web Console address is the same as the Host Name. If it is not, take the following steps:
    1. Clear the Same as Data Source check box.
    2. Complete the Host Name, Protocol, and Port fields with the information you provided in steps 5 and 6.
  9. Click Save to save the registration.
  10. Click Save & Add Another to register another data source.

    CA Performance Center lists the data sources you registered in the Data Source List.
