Checklist for importing data: IBM Endpoint Manager for Software Use Analysis and IBM Endpoint Manager
Use this checklist to guide you in using the procedure that is appropriate for your scenario with either IBM Endpoint Manager for Software Use Analysis or IBM® Endpoint Manager.
| ☐ | - | Assess your scenario. | Review the supported adapters to determine which adapters to run. See: |
| ☐ | - | Complete the configuration tasks. | Ensure that you enable the Control Desk integration with the adapter for the appropriate scenario: |
| ☐ | 1. | Define the data source connection for the source data and for the target data. | In Integration Composer,
define a data source connection for the source of the data to be imported,
which is the discovery tool database. Then repeat the procedure to define a data source connection for the target of the data to be imported, which is Deployed Assets 7.6 (the Maximo® database). For instructions about how to complete this step, see Step 1: Defining your data source connections. |
| ☐ | 2. | Create a mapping. | In Integration Composer,
create a new mapping for the discovery
tool–to–Deployed Assets 7.6 data,
import the mapping file provided with the adapter and save the mapping. For instructions about how to complete this step, see Step 2: Creating a mapping. |
| ☐ | 3. | [Optional] Modify mapping expressions. | If appropriate, modify mapping expressions to
suit your business needs. For instructions about how to complete this step, see Step 3: [Optional] Modifying the mapping expressions. |
| ☐ | 4. | Run the mapping. | Run the mapping to create records in the target
database. You can either enter all your parameter values into a script
and run the script, or type them directly onto the command line and
run the command. For instructions about how to complete this step, see Step 4: Running a mapping. |
