A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

How to Populate the CMDB with Data from DDMI

This task describes how to install and use the DDMI adapter, and includes the following steps:

Define the DDMI integration

Click the new integration point button to open the new integration point Dialog Box.

Click , select the DDMI adapter, and click OK.

Each out-of-the-box adapter comes predefined with the basic setup needed to perform integration with UCMDB. For information about changing these settings, see "Integration Studio Page" in the Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Help.
Enter the following information, and click OK:

Name	Description
Credentials	Allows you to set credentials for integration points. For credential information, see Supported Protocols.
Hostname/IP	The name of the DDMI server.
Integration Name	The name you give to the integration point.
Is Integration Activated	Select this check box to create an active integration point. You clear the check box if you want to deactivate an integration, for instance, to set up an integration point without actually connecting to a remote machine.
Port	The port through which you access the DDMI database.

Click Test connection to verify the connectivity, and click OK.
Click Next and verify that the following message is displayed: A connection has been successfully created. If it does not, check the integration point parameters and try again.

Define a population job (optional)

The DDMI adapter comes out-of-the-box with the DDMI Population job, which runs the following predefined queries: hostDataImport, networkDataImport, printerDataImport, and Layer2DataImport. For details about these queries, see Predefined Queries for Population Jobs. This job runs according to a default schedule setting.

You can also create additional jobs. To do this, select the Population tab to define a population job that uses the integration point you defined in Define the DDMI integration. For details, see "New Integration Job/Edit Integration Job Dialog Box" in the Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Help.
Run the population job
Activate the population job in one of the following ways:
- To immediately run a full population job, click . In a full population job, all appropriate data is transferred, without taking the last run of the population job into consideration.
- To immediately run a differential population job, click . In a differential population job, the previous population time stamp is sent to DDMI, and DDMI returns changes from that time stamp to the present. These changes are then entered into the UCMDB database.
- To schedule a differential population job to run at a later time or periodically, define a scheduled task. For details, see "Define Tasks that Are Activated on a Periodic Basis" in the Administer section of the UCMDB Help.
