How to Integrate CA Spectrum and CA Performance Center

The following diagram shows the major steps that are required to configure the CA Spectrum and CA Performance Center integration:

CA Spectrum and CA Performance Center integration steps

If you plan to have Data Aggregator discover the devices that CA Spectrum contributes (the optional Step 5, below), register the Data Aggregator data source first, and enable the option to Discover Devices from other Data Sources. Data Collectors must also be installed for each IP Domain to which CA Spectrum will contribute device models.

Follow these steps:

  1. Configure CA Spectrum as a Data Source in CA Performance Center.
  2. Enable Event Polling in CA Spectrum.
  3. Configure SNMP Profiles in CA Performance Center.
  4. Add Models to IP Domain Global Collections.
  5. (Optional) Enable Discovery Synchronization with CA Infrastructure Management Data Aggregator.

The optional step to enable discovery synchronization involves some configuration in CA Performance Center and in the Data Aggregator component.

Note: After the integration, if you cannot view the CA Performance Center events in CA Spectrum, check whether any firewall settings block the communication between CA Performance Center and CA Spectrum OneClick server.
