UIM Bidirectional Search criteria contains UIM models

Products

• CA Spectrum

Issue/Introduction

There are UIM models in the Global Collection when used the existing bi-directional search criteria to synchronize the CA Spectrum inventory with CA UIM, which will lead to an integration issue.
 

Environment

CA Spectrum 10.0; 10.1.x; 10.2.x, 10.3

Cause

The existing UIM bi-directional search criteria contains models of type 0x6330002 (NimsoftHostServer), 0x6330007 (NimsoftVirtualMachineHost), 0x6330008 (NimsoftVMPingable).

Resolution

This issue was fixed in Spectrum_10.03.00.BMP_10.3.001 (Bi-Monthly Patch): https://techdocs.broadcom.com/content/broadcom/techdocs/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/it-operations-management/spectrum/10-3/release-information/bi-monthly-patches-bmps-on-10-3.html#concept.dita_bc55333331dabd008fac7d099ff16f65ff1a9b04_1030BMP103001

The workaround is removing the 0x6330002 (NimsoftHostServer), 0x6330007 (NimsoftVirtualMachineHost), 0x6330008 (NimsoftVMPingable) from the search criteria used in the Global Collection.
