BMC BladeLogic Configuration
Manager Overview 1
You can integrate BMC BladeLogic with vRealize Automation to enable deployment of BMC BladeLogic
software jobs on machines provisioned by vRealize Automation. Custom properties can be used to
specify whether these jobs can be selected by the requesting user on a per-machine basis or applied to
all machines provisioned from a particular blueprint.
The following is a high-level overview of the requirements for integrating BMC BladeLogic Configuration
Manager with vRealize Automation:
n
A system administrator verifies that BMC BladeLogic Operations Manger 7.6.0.115 or BMC Server
Automation Console 8.2 is installed on the same host as your external provisioning integration (EPI)
agent.
n
A system administrator sets the PowerShell execution policy to RemoteSigned. See Chapter 2 Set
the PowerShell Execution Policy to RemoteSigned.
n
A system administrator installs at least one EPI agent. See Chapter 3 Install an EPI Agent for BMC
BladeLogic.
n
A system administrator configures how software jobs are deployed. See Chapter 5 Integrate BMC
BladeLogic.
n
A tenant administrator or a business group manager creates a blueprint that enables the deployment
of software jobs. See Chapter 6 Creating BMC BladeLogic Blueprints.
