Creating the definitive library

Create a definitive library that references the IBM® Rational® Asset Manager repository. A definitive library is a secure component in which the definitive, authorized versions of media or software package configuration items are stored and protected.

Procedure

  1. In IBM Tivoli® Change and Configuration Management Database (CCMDB), click Go To > Release > Definitive Media Library. In earlier versions of CCMDB, you might see Definitive Software Library.
  2. Click Create DML. In earlier versions of CCMDB, you might see Create DSL.
  3. In the Name field, type a name for the definitive library.
  4. Type a description for the library.
  5. In the Owner field, click Select Value and select an owner for the library.
  6. In the Details section, in the Classification Path field, click Classify.
  7. In the Classify window, select the Rational Asset Manager Repository entry. The classification is from the Rational Asset Manager integration module that was installed in CCMDB.
  8. In the Scope section, check all the types of software images that apply to this library; for example, Source Code and Binary.
  9. In the Management Application section, in the Name field, click Select OMP.
    Note: If you receive an error that no authorized CIs are available then you must authorize them first. To do that use the Deployer’s Workbench.
  10. In the Select OMP window, select the OMP to use for this library and click OK.
  11. Click Save DML. In earlier versions of CCMDB, you might see Save DSL.

Results

Now that you have created the definitive library, you can publish assets from Rational Asset Manager to CCMDB.
