MicroStrategy ONE

Retrieving MicroStrategy Information

You can retrieve various information about the MicroStrategy software, which is installed for the machine System Manager is running on, as part of a System Manager workflow. Each MicroStrategy property that you retrieve must be stored in a parameter for the workflow (see Using Parameters for Processes).

To perform this configuration, in System Manager, from the Connectors and processes pane, add the Retrieve MicroStrategy Properties process to your workflow. The following information is required to retrieve information on the MicroStrategy installation:

  • MicroStrategy Property: The information about the system that is retrieved. You can select from the following options:
    • Home Path: The path that acts as the home directory for the MicroStrategy installation. This path includes MicroStrategy configuration files that can be modified after a successful installation.
    • Common Path: The path that contains important files. The types of files included in this path varies depending on your operating system, but it can include files such as log files, SQL files, WAR files, JAR files, libraries, and more.
    • Build Version: The build version number of the MicroStrategy software. This version number can be helpful when troubleshooting a MicroStrategy system and when working with MicroStrategy Technical Support.
    • Release Version: The major release version of the MicroStrategy software, such as 9.2.1.
  • Parameter: The System Manager parameter that is used to store the MicroStrategy information that is retrieved.
  • Retrieve this additional property: Select this check box to retrieve additional information about the MicroStrategy installation. For each of these check boxes that you select, an additional MicroStrategy Property and Parameter pair is made available.
  • Notes: Information to describe this process as part of the workflow.
