ADDM/BMC Discovery Data not visible

[daniel_klein]

Hi,

we established a connection between our FNMS dev enviroment (2019R2) and our BMC Discovery (11.3.0.5)system. We created the importer as as documented in the Inventory Adapters and Connectors Reference Guide. Import worked and i can see data in the ADDM_stagging and also in the FNMS Inventory, but not in the FNMS Compliance. We see no data in the web ui too

Maybe we've done something wrong while setting up the adapter? There was one part in the documentation which confused us a little bit om Page 32 - Installing and Configuring the Staging Tool at point 2:

From your unzipped adapter archive, copy the folder BMC Atrium Discovery and Dependency Mapping (found in the path Adapter\Reader\) to the location identified in the previous step. This folder includes at least ten XML files and a reader.config file. This completes configuration for the inventory reader.

We created a folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\ADDMAdapter where we put the FnmpADDMSettings.xml and FnmpADDMStage.exe 

There is also the folder C:\ProgramData\Flexera Software\Compliance\ImportProcedures\Inventory\Reader\BMC Atrium Discovery and Dependency Mapping where the reader.config is located.

Look that correct to you guys? 

Hope you can help us 🙂

Thanks

Daniel

Good to know that ADDM can also be integrated directly as an inventory adapter in the context of Reconcile 🙂

We have chosen a different way.

1) Staging the ADDM via FnmpADDMStage.exe as Scheduled Tasks (in your case done)

2) Add the ADDM staging data base as another inventory source to your beacon (same as SCCM, O365, ...) and schedule the import into the FNMS importtables for reconcilitation.

Best,

Dennis
