  • 1.  Process to Automate PMR request to IBM

    Posted Wed October 25, 2017 12:35 AM

    Hi Experts,

    Do you know any method of automating IBM PMR request without directly login to IBM Support portal through browser.

    My requirement is I have an custom developed Java UI in my project to automate many WebSphere administration tasks. This UI  needs to connect to IBM PMR portal and raise a request with IBM registered user/password details.

    I would like to know if I can integrate IBM PMR service with this Java UI which is developed by my project. This way I don't have to directly login to IBM Portal.

    Do we have IBM PMR as a web service that can be integrated with my custom JAVA UI.  Any API provided for  connecting to PMR Portal. Not through browser which I have been doing to raise PMR.

    Can I hit https://www-947.ibm.com/support/servicerequest/Home.action from my java UI and enter credentials and raise a PMR? is it possible? if so can one of you guide me to the procedure.

     

    Current situation is as a Admin team , we will have to raise a PMR to many of the application teams and issues each time and upload files too. This is a hectic,burden and repetitive task for Admin team which we cant avoided at present.

    if I can integrate this PMR service to my Java UI which in turn connected to internal LDAP for authentication and authorization, and provide access to each app team , they themselves can raise a PMR request without intervention of Admin team.

    Do we have any specific command/process in WebSphere to automate PMR request?

    Since everything can be automated in this world, Can we have solution to this requirement.

     

    Cheers, Thank you.

    Not aware of such feature.  At this moment, IBM Support Portal and Voice access are the only two options to raise a PMR.
