Steps to create a BigFix to ICD hardware mapping:
- Create, and test the connection to, a data source using the IBM BigFix Data Schema, with an IBM Endpoint Manager and SUA API Connection Method (I named it BFP, for BigFix Platform).
- Create, and test the connection to, a data source using the Deployed Assets 7.x Data Schema, with the appropriate JDBC Driver Connection Method (I named it DPA, for DePloyed Assets).
- Create an empty mapping (I named it BF-HW2DPA) with a source of BFP and a target of DPA, and import the IEM90ToDPA75.fsn mapping file. It has a file date of 14 Sep 2017 and a time of 17:20. Click on Select Action, Show Errors. This should result in no errors found. Next, Select Action, Save.
Steps to create a BFI to ICD Software Mapping
- Create, and test the connection to, a data source using the IBM BigFix Inventory Data Schema, with an IBM Endpoint Manager and SUA API Connection Method (I named it BFI, for BigFix Inventory).
- Create an empty mapping (I named the mapping BF-SW2DPA) with a source of BFI and a target of DPA, and import the BigFixInventoryToDPA75.fsn mapping file. It has a file date of 14 Sep 2017 and a time of 17:20. (Do not use the mapping file BigFixInventory2x__90ToDPA75.fsn) Click on Select Action, Show Errors. This should result in no errors found. Next, Select Action, Save.
This should result in a set of mappings that will run from the command line.
