Post-Installation Configuration
This section outlines the steps to complete after a successful installation of the ServiceNow Adapter.
-
Deploy the Database Schema - creates all the necessary database objects for data processing.
-
Test the ServiceNow Instance Connection - verifies connectivity to the ServiceNow instance to prevent data transfer errors.
If you need to process and send data right away, proceed with the following steps; otherwise, wait for the next scheduled daily processing.
-
Process the data from the Open iT SQL Database - processes and prepares the necessary data from the Open iT SQL database for sending.
-
Send the data to the ServiceNow Instance - transfers the processed data to ServiceNow, where it will be transformed for reporting compatibility.
If you upgraded from a previous installation and changed the ServiceNow instance URI, follow these instructions:
-
Disable OpeniT.Adapter.Console in the Task Scheduler - prevents duplicate processing and potential data inconsistencies.
-
Run the command OpeniT.Adapter.Console.exe RunAdapter /fullwipe - reprocesses and pushes all data to the new instance.
-
Enable the OpeniT.Adapter.Console in the Task Scheduler - restores scheduled daily data processing, now that all data has been pushed to the new instance.
