Create configuration based on Optimize

You can create a configuration for PPM based on a webMethods Optimize configuration. Use the Create configuration based on Optimize wizard to select the required process type groups and process types for which you can transfer the associated dimensions and measures from webMethods Optimize to PPM.

Whenever you start the wizard, you must specify the login data (User name and Password) for the webMethods Optimize Analytic Engine. This data is not saved by CTK. For more information, please contact your webMethods administrator.

Prerequisite

You have configured the webMethods access data.

Procedure

  1. In the Properties component in the Client module, click the new_analysis Select configuration wizard button.
  2. In the Select wizard dialog, click Create configuration based on Optimize.
  3. Specify your settings and click Finish. Before you exit the wizard, you can display a brief summary of the configuration.

The configuration for PPM has been created and the PPM client customizing extended accordingly. All the data except for the user name and password is saved in the client properties (configuration file <Client>_CTK.xml).

The selected webMethods Optimize configuration optimize_config_download_<date and time>.xml and the generated PPM configuration log file optimize_config_import_<date and time>.log are stored in the following directory.

<PPM installation directory>/ppmmashzone/server/bin/work/data_ppm/custom/<client>/log/optimize_config

The log file contains a detailed report of the created configuration, which you can use to make changes to the configuration manually, if required.
