Overview

Universal CMDB (UCMDB) can discover data center infrastructure information stored in an HPE Systems Insight Manager (SIM) system. Integration involves synchronizing devices, topology, and the hierarchy of a data center infrastructure in the UCMDB database (CMDB). This enables change management and impact analysis across all business services mapped in UCMDB, from an infrastructure point of view.

UCMDB initiates discovery on the HPE SIM server through Web service calls. Synchronized configuration items (CIs) include nodes such as Windows, and UNIX servers, network devices, printers, clusters, cellular/partitioned systems, blade enclosures, and racks. Some server components, for example, CPU, are also synchronized. The integration also synchronizes relationships between blade servers and blade enclosures, virtual machines, physical servers, and so on. The synchronization uses an XML-based mapping that dynamically changes synchronized CIs and attributes without requiring a code change.

For details on nodes and attributes in HPE SIM, refer to the Database tables section of the HPE SIM Technical Reference guide.
