Configure Active BIM

Configuring the Active and Standby BIM components are optional.

1. For the BIM service, use:

   ./sm_service install --force  --unmanaged  --startmode=runonce \
    '--name=ic-mbim-server' \
    '--description=EMC Smarts MBIM - Maintenance and Business Impact Manager Server' \
    '/<BASEDIR>/SAM/smarts/bin/sm_server' \
    '-n' \
    'INCHARGE-MBIM' \
    '--config=bim' \
    '--port=1752' \
   '--ignore-restore-errors' \
    '--noregister' \
    '--output'
   

2. Start the service in “Start the services for SAM, Adapter Platform, and BIM” on page 27.

3. For the Active BIM, add the Active Service Assurance Manager as a source.

4. Attach a Global Console to the Active BIM by specifying “<FQDN hostA>:<portA>/<ServerName>” in the Manager Name field of the Attach Manager Dialog Box. For example, itops-tco-217.lss.emc.com:1752/INCHARGE-MBIM.

5. In the Domain Manager Administration Console, select INCHARGE-MBIM.

6. Select Topology > Add Source.

7. Specify INCHARGE-SA as a topology source for the Active BIM.

8. Apply the configuration change and reconfigure BIM.
