Issue/Introduction



We have added a new system running its own Datacom and sharing its policy with an existing system .
The new UI setup allowed us to add the new system.
Is there a way to add the new system to the compatibility UI tree structure? 

Environment

Release:
Component: CEVM

Resolution



The file that configures the compatibality UI is located at: 

<CEM_CONFIG_PATH>/ceme_config.xml 

This file can be edited to add node difinitions that follow the following template: 

<tree id="%UNIQUE_ID%" desc="%DESCRIPTION%"> 
<server_info> 
<host>%LDAP_HOSTNAME%</host> 
<port>%LDAP_HOST_PORT%</port> 
<ldapsuffix>%LDAP_HOST_SUFFIX%</ldapsuffix> 
<numberOfRowsToDisplayFromSearch>25</numberOfRowsToDisplayFromSearch> 
<searchTimeLimit>60</searchTimeLimit> 
<otherTimeLimit>5</otherTimeLimit> 
<producttype>ciem</producttype> 
<xmlfile>conf/cmgr/cmgrtree.xml</xmlfile> 
</server_info> 
</tree> 

There are five vairables that need to be configured: 

%UNIQUE_ID%: Unique string relative to other ids in this file needed to identify the node in the list. 
%DESCRIPTION%: Description used for the node name in the UI. 
%LDAP_HOSTNAME%: Host name of the machine that is hosting LDAP. 
%LDAP_HOST_PORT%: Port number of the LDAP that is listening on. 
%LDAP_HOST_SUFFIX%: Suffix value that LDAP has configured. 

Alternatively, this file can be modified within the configuration process by editing the following dataset in the same manner: 
<CEME_HLQ>.<CEME_MLQ>.CUSTOM.CFGLIB(CEMECFGX) 

After editing, re run J01160SP to copy the dataset the <CEM_CONFIG_PATH> directory 

After the file has been updated, restart tomcat and you should see the new node.
