This appendix provides detailed information about integrating the Hewlett-Packard Universal Discovery (HPUD) agent-based discovery solution with the Normalize component of the BDNA Data Platform. The integration enables you to normalize the output of the HP Data Flow Probe Server using the data contained within the BDNA Technopedia catalog, rather than the HP Universal Discovery Software Application Library. The HP scan file output (.xsf) is processed by Normalize and stored in a file directory on the HP Probe Server. The file directory is “watched” by the HP Probe Server, which is configured to retrieve the .xsf file and send it to the HP UCMDB (Universal Content Management Database).
Typically, the BDNA Data Platform Server is installed directly on the same system as the HP Data Flow Probe Server.
BDNA Data Platform and HP Data Flow Probe Server 10.21 are required for this integration.
