AAI Integration for Tidal

Automic Automation Intelligence (AAI) for Tidal (TES) allows you to add multiple Tidal masters, including definitional data and event data, into a single AAI instance. This allows you to have a single pane of glass across multiple Tidal masters as well as other scheduler instances that are included in your AAI installation.

Overview

The Tidal Connector is a native connector and it is built into the AAI Platform; therefore it does not require a separate component for the integration. It connects with the Tidal database to periodically extract job definitions and executions (current and historical runs) and import them into AAI.

Note:

If you use Tidal version 6.x and higher, you can also use the AAI REST API to extract the relevant data and import it to AAI.

Once you have your system up and running, you have to add Tidal schedulers to your Automic Automation Intelligence environment. To do so, go to System > Schedulers in your user interface and follow the steps in the dialog to add an Tidal scheduler. For more information, see Configuring TES Schedulers (Thick Client).

If the process was successful, the new schedulers are listed with all the schedulers available in your system.

You must add a new Tidal scheduler for each Tidal datacenter that you want to integrate into your AAI environment.

Important !
  • Check the compatibility matrix (compatibility matrix) to find the relevant information on supported versions and possible dependencies. For more information, see Compatibility Information.

  • When upgrading AAI and connectors, make sure you take down the relevant connectors, upgrade and start AAI, and then upgrade and start each connector.
