III. Address server: is a service which will process data quality transformation.
2) BODS Management Console: It is a administrator tool; It is a web application; URL
http://<BODS server name>:<WAS port>/ data services; It’s a secured application 3.x
(admin U/N, pwd) from 4.x cmccredentials.

objects as depicted in Data Services Designer, including their relationships,
properties, and more.
III. Data Validation:Evaluate the reliability of your target data based on the validation
rules you create in your Data Services batch jobs to quickly review, assess, and
identify potential inconsistencies or errors in source data.

3) CMC / IPS (central management console/ Information platform services)CMC is BO BI

application; is a secured and role based application; In cmc w.r.t. BODS we can do
repository management, user management, security mgmt., license management. URL:
http:// <BOE/CMC server name>:<WAS port>/BOE/CMC.
Installation of BODS 4.0: We need database(MySQL) and web application server(Tomcat)
I. Non BOE customer: IPSBODS Server BODS Client.
II. BOE Customer: BO CMC BODS Server BODS client.
III. BOE Customer with dual platform: BO CMC; IPS BODS Server BODS Client.
BODS Tools
1. CMC/IPS tools
I. Central configuration manager:Helps in managing of BO services; desktop tool/
server tool/ administrator tool; we can manage EIM adoptive processing service
which helps in the creation of RFC connection for sap extraction.
II. Central management console:
III. Life cycle management console (LCM):Helps in deploying BOE content (CMC
content); version management tool;web app; server tool ; administrator tool;
URL: http:// <IPS/CMC server>:<WAS port /BOE/ LCM>; from BOE 4.0 sp 5
onwards in cmc we have two new options instead of LCM : promotion mgmt.,
subversion mgmt.
IV. Upgrade Mgmt tool(UMT):Helps in upgrading BOE content and applications from
lower(4.0) version to higher(4.1) version; it is a desktop tool; server tool;
administrator tool;
V. Web deployment tool (WDT):Helps in deploying web applications i.,e when our
web applications get corrupted we can deploy using WDT i.,e deploy .WAR files
into Web application server.
