4.Merge the technology pack subelement inventory text files.

Subelement inventory control rules for the Cisco IP Telephony Technology Pack are contained in the file voip_cisco_ipt_inventory_subelements.txt, which is installed in the following directory on the DataMart server:

$PVMHOME/APFiles/voip_cisco_ipt/datamart/conf

You must merge the contents of this file with the file inventory_subelements.txt located in $PVMHOME/conf (typically, /opt/datamart/conf) on the DataMart server:

To merge the subelement inventory control rules for the Cisco IP Telephony Technology Pack, follow these steps:

4-a. Change your working directory to $PVMHOME/conf by entering the following command:

cd $PVMHOME/conf

4-b. Copy voip_cisco_ipt_inventory_subelements.txt to the $PVMHOME/conf directory, by entering the following command:

cp $PVMHOME/APFiles/voip_cisco_ipt/datamart/conf/voip_cisco_ipt_inventory_subelements.txt .

4-c. Make a backup copy of the inventory_subelements.txt file by entering the following command:

cp inventory_subelements.txt inventory_subelements.txt.ORIG

4-d. Append the contents of voip_cisco_ipt_inventory_subelements.txt to inventory_subelements.txt, by entering the following command:

cat voip_cisco_ipt_inventory_subelements.txt >> inventory_subelements.txt

Important: Ensure that you use two forward brackets (>>); otherwise, the original contents of inventory_subelements.txt will be overwritten.

4-e. Perform a diff on the backed-up file and the appended file to ensure that the merge succeeded, as shown in the following example:

diff inventory_subelements.txt inventory_subelements.txt.ORIG

Important: If you do not have a CCM environment, skip Step 5 and continue with Step 6.
