Configuring Dimensions CM to use DA

To use DA instead of Dimensions Deployment, the default CM deployment model, modify the CM configuration file.

NOTE  If you do a clean install of Dimensions CM with DA the steps described below are performed automatically by the installer.

  1. Open the CM configuration file:

    2. %DM_ROOT%/dm.cfg

  2. Add these variables:

    3. Specifies the URL of the DA server, for example:

    DM_SDA_URL %DM_WEB_URL%/da

    TIP: Multiple Dimensions CM servers can use the same DA server.

    Specifies a Dimensions CM user ID that will be used by DA to notify CM about the success or failure of automation executions. For example:

    DM_SDA_NOTIFY_TO_USER notifyusr

  3. Save the file.

  4. Register the notification user account password in registry.dat specifying DM_SDA_NOTIFY_TO_USER (not a real user ID) as the first parameter:

    5. dmpasswd DM_SDA_NOTIFY_TO_USER -add -pwd <password>

  5. Restart the CM Listener.
