TEM integration with TAMIT

(imported topic written by edweb3)

Hi everybody

I am new on Bigfix world, and I am trying to make an integration between TEM and TAMIT. I already read all the guides of the integration, and I have my TAMIT server (with the Integration Composer) working fine; also my TEM server and the module SUA (and DSS-SAM) are working fine. I prepared the TEM Server, following all the steps of the guide (add TAMIT integration site, suscribed computers, analysis, import data in SUA, add TAMIT integration properties in SUA, import data in SUA, change te propertie to import text value longer than 255 character, etc); Also I configured all the stuff in TAMIT Server with the Integration composer, (Define the new data source, etc.). But there is an issue when I try to import the dara from the BFInventory DB to the TAMIT Database, just after the “create schema” in the integration composer and when I click the “finish” button nothing happen.

I would aprecciate if you guys have any ideas about this issue. Thank you

Santiago

HI Fernando

We are configuring TEM to load data into TAMIT, I have followed the below given steps from IBM. We are struck at step 9, we couldn’t see TAMIT Integration properties. TAMIT Integration properties are not showing up at step 9. What could have caused this issue. How to debug the issue

  1. Subscribe to the TAMIT site:

a. Obtain the TAMIT site masthead file, which is installed with Integration

Composer and located at:

Integration Composer_dir/data/dataschema/tem_sua_1.3/TEM DPA

Integration.efxm (Find the attachment)

b. Open the Tivoli Endpoint Manager console using a Master Operator

account, and select:

Tools > Add External Site Masthead

c. Navigate to the masthead file, TEM DPA Integration.efxm, and click OK.

  1. In the left pane of the console, from the All Content view, select the TAMIT

Integration folder.

  1. In the right pane, select All computers and click Save Changes to subscribe

all computers to the site.

  1. In the left pane of the console, from the All Content view, select:

Sites > TAMIT Integration > Analyses.

  1. In the right pane, select all the analyses records, then right click and select

Activate. Each of the analyses records should display Activated Globally. If

they display Activated Locally, deactivate them and use a Master Operator

account to reactivate them.

After activation, you can select any of the analyses and see the data coming in

from the field computers on the Results tab.

To use the new analyses properties, you must first add them to the Software

Use Analysis inventory database, as described in the next steps.

  1. Open the Software Usage Analysis interface and log in.

http://For Software Use Analysis 1.3.1 (or later) users only

Run an import (or wait

for a scheduled import to run) to get your new properties to appear in the

system. To run an import on demand (rather than waiting):

a. Open the Software Usage Analysis Control Panel and on the left pane

select Import Options.

b. On the right pane, in the Run Now section, clear the Perform full import

check box and click Run.

Depending on the size of your deployment, the import might take a while to

run. You can monitor progress by clicking on one of the other items in the

Control Panel items list, which will redirect you to the log viewer.

Note: If you are using BigFix DSS SAM or Software Use Analysis 1.3.0 (or

earlier), you do not need to run an import until step 11.

  1. Add the properties to the system.

a. From the Software Usage Analysis Control Panel, left pane, select

Computer Properties.

b. In the right pane, bottom left corner, click the + (plus) button to add a

property.

  1. In the Create Computer Properties window, select TAMIT Integration >

TAMIT::72::Audio devices > TAMIT::72::Audio information. When you select

TAMIT::72::Audio information, the Name field above the folder should

update to TAMIT::72::Audio information. Do not modify this name, because

the integration depends on the name being correct.

  1. Repeat step 9 for each of the other properties in the TAMIT Integration folder

that start with TAMIT::72. When you are finished, the data structures are

available in Software Use Analysis, but they are not populated with computer

data yet.

  1. Import the actual property data into the inventory database (or wait for a

scheduled import to run). To run an import on demand (rather than waiting):

a. Open the Software Usage Analysis Control Panel and on the left pane

select Import Options.

b. On the left pane, in the Run Now section, clear the Perform full import

check box and click Run.

Depending on the size of your deployment, the import might take a while to

run. You can monitor progress by clicking on one of the other items in the

Control Panel items list, which will redirect you to the log viewer.

  1. Configure Software Use Analysis to import text values longer than 255

characters:

a. Find DSS\rails\tmp\schema.ini in the Tivoli Endpoint Manager for

Software Use Analysis installation folder.

b. Open the schema.ini file and locate the section for properties.csv.

c. Change the Column 4 definition to: Col4=value LongChar and save the file

TAMIT and ITIC works fine. - I copied IntegrationComposer7220.jar to C:\Integration Composer - I copied BigfixToDPA722.fsn to C:\Integration Composer\data\mappings. I execute BigFixDataSchema.ora. It did not give errors. But when I want to Define New Data Source, I could not find Bigfix. Where do i do mistakes? Can you explain me? My e-mail address : arif.baykan@eutek.com.tr.

Hi Santiago,

I’m doing a PoC of TEM and TAMIT and I’m having the same problem as you had in the past…doing all the configuration and just after the “create schema” in the integration composer, when I click the “finish” button nothing happen.

How did you solved this issue ?

thanks in advance,

David
