I assume you want the CIs arriving in the ADDM dataset to create product catalog entries automatically?
Personally I don't recommend this but it just depends on your processes to fix the bad product catalog entries that arrive: - proactively by them failing normalisation and not being allowed to be reconciled then you fixing this using aliases or adding new product catalog entries - allowing the product catalog entries to be created automatically and reconciled then weeding out the bad ones and updating the CMDB CIs To allow CIs in a dataset to create product catalog entries you select the 'Allow new product catalog entry' option for the dataset in the Normalisation Engine configuration.

Does anyone know how to create a trust relationship with the BMC.ADDM dataset in CMDB 7.6.4? I have looked in several of the BMC technical guides and what is written is not working. The guide states "Trusted datasets" is listed in the Admin Console (Custom tab) under " Foundation - Product/Operational Catalogs" - and I do not see "Trusted datasets" there. Does something have to be installed first? Is there a permission setting that I am missing. I checked the BMC forums - and no info was there. There is a form called PCT:Trusteddataset - so trusted datasets are associated with the Product Catalog application. At first I was wondering if certain patches or some software from the Product Catalog has to be configured first in order to build the trust relationship. However, we have another "Test" dataset that was set up as a trust already so I am thinking we are configured correctly. Interestingly, the BMC.ADDM dataset does show up in Atrium Core, when I try to create a reconciliation job.

We are trying to build the trust relationship between ADDM and the CMDB. However, when I log into the Application Administrator Console, I do not see 'Trusted Datasets' under the "Products/ Operational Catalogs" section as described in the manual. I am wondering why. When I open the 'Trusted Dataset' form directly - I do not see the BMC.ADDM dataset that was created. I looked in NE:Dataset options also. Any ideas why this is happening. _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
