Support for file evidence from ADDM data source in IT Visibility with Technology Intelligence Platform

Note:This feature is available with IT Visibility.

Flexera One has added support for file evidence for customers using BMC Atrium Discovery and Dependency Mapping (ADDM) as an inventory data source. File evidence is an evidence type for software inventory. It indicates evidence in the form of a file that is found on a computer—it might simply be the name of the file, or the information found within the file.

The software assets in ADDM can now be recognized using the file evidence properties such as file name, product name, product version, and so on.

With this feature, the inventory data sources that support file evidence includes the following:

•

BMC Atrium Discovery and Dependency Mapping (ADDM)

•

Data Platform Extractors

•

Flexera Inventory

•

IBM License Metric Tool (ILMT)

•

Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM)

You will now see changes in the software and hardware dashboards showing data from ADDM being recognized from file evidence.
