The connection of SBM with Dimensions CM is implemented using ALF events. You must update the dm.cfg file on the Dimensions CM server with the ALF event configuration information, which includes the endpoints and sign-on credentials SBM uses for the connection, the location of the ALF XML file that tells ALF which Dimensions CM information to look for, and which product instance to use.
To update the ALF events configuration for Dimensions CM:
On the Dimensions CM server, navigate to the Dimensions CM installation directory. For example:
C:\Program Files\Dimensions 12.1\CM
Update the dm.cfg file to add or update ALF variables as follows:
#######################################
# ALF Events Configuration
#######################################
DM_ALF_ENDPOINT http://<sbmserver>:<port#>/eventmanager/services/ALFEventManager
DM_ALF_USER <user>
DM_ALF_PASSWORD <password>
DM_ALF_EVENT_CONFIG %DM_DFS%alf_events_config.xml
DM_ALF_PRODUCT_INSTANCE DimensionsUnderReleaseManagementControl
where
DM_ALF_ENDPOINT is pointing to the SBM server and port number and the ALF Event Manager for that SBM server
DM_ALF_USER is a valid SBM and Dimension CM user with administrative privileges
Example
dm.cfg
