  • 1.  Instance Tagging on ILMT

    Posted Tue October 17, 2023 04:21 AM

    Hi Everyone,

    At present in our Bigfix/ILMT infrastructure, We are having production, development and acceptance clients all pointing to a common bigfix server. As per the business owner, we need to do the tagging just to differentiate all of them while pulling the audit report. I had found a manual way but it is very time consuming and we have to do it everytime when a new software is identified, Can this be automated?

    Hello,

    I assume you are referring to this manual procedure:

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/SS8JFY_9.2.0/com.ibm.lmt.doc/Inventory/softinv/t_adding_tags.html

    ?

    There is also an option to add/remove tags using REST API. Have you tried this method ? 

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/license-metric-tool?topic=api-rest-adding-removing-tags

    Thank you.
