What can it connect to?

[Jones]

Hello,

I'm a more of a ServiceCenter user, but we are looking in to AssetCenter and Connect-it,

we currently have Centennial software which scans all the pc's on our network and stores the data within it's SQL database.

Could we use connect-it to copy 5 or 6 fields into the AssetCenter database?

Could we do this with the standard Connect-it?,.... I have heard poeple talking about connectors etc?

Yes Connect.It can connect to a SQL database but not in the base version. You need to purchase a seperate connector from HP.

Hi Tommy,

thanks for your reply,.....

So what does the base version enable you to do,...?

I would guess just connect AssetCenter and ServiceCenter? but what if SC is using an SQL database instead of P4?

Thanks,

I can't remember all the available connectors in the base version.

SC & AC connectors are included.

Text read & write connectors.

XML read & write connectors.

As for SC on P4 or SQL. The standard method to connecto to SC is with the SC connector which connects the same way as a client and it does not matter wether sc is on P4 or external RDBMS. To connect to SQL You need the additional connector.
