Point to CCMS Output Generator

You can use CCMS Desktop to point to the Development Environment CCMS Output Generator.

Drive Z or outgen is where you and your developers modify CCMS Output Generator files, which enables you to test and iterate as many times as required before you commit your changes.

To point to CCMS Output Generator:

  1. Open CCMS Desktop.
  2. On the Global Actions toolbar, click .
    Note: The button color is green if you are connected or red if you are disconnected.
    The Preferences dialog displays with the CMS configuration.
    Figure: Preferences dialog
    OG hostname in Dev Environment
    Note: In the figure, xxxx is in place of your company name as part of the domain.
  3. Locate the Output Generator section of CMS configuration, and in the Hostname field, set the domain. 
    app-dev-og.domain

    Where:

    domain is your IXIA CCMS domain, typically your-company-name-ccms.ixiasoft.net

    Tip: Your CCMS Desktop client prepopulates the Hostname field, pointing to app-test-xxxx-ccms.ixiasoft.net. You can double-click in the field on test, and then replace it with dev-og so that it points to your Dev CCMS Output Generator.
  4. Click Apply and Close.
The hostname is set and CCMS Desktop points to CCMS Output Generator.
