Configuring SOAP

The only configuration setting required for SOAP is the location of the WSDL file that is stored in the registry. The setting name is wsdl and the value is the path to the WSDL file. The default value is the sample file, relevance.wsdl, in the installation directory. This WSDL file defines relevanceExprthat allows you to evaluate a relevance expression. If you installed Tivoli BigFix to a folder named BigFix Enterprise, you can find the file in this directory:

BigFix Enterprise\BES Server\BESReportsServer\wwwroot\soap

The Registry contains the actual location for your particular installation:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\BigFix\Enterprise Server\BESReports\Paths

On a 64-bit machine, you must select the Wow6432 node:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\BigFix\Enterprise Server\BESReports\Paths

This registry key has a string value named wsdl that contains the path name for the WSDL file.
