Integration between BILLmanager and DCImanager 6 allows a service provider to offer dedicated servers to his customers. 

After a client orders a service, BILLmanager sends the API request to DCImanager 6 to create the dedicated server. The service is activated in BILLmanager (its status is changed into "Active") after the server preparation process is completed. 

To configure integration with DCImanager 6, create a data center and connect the processing module.

Note:

We recommend enabling the "Confirmation by email" option for reliable client verification: Provider → Global settings → Clients verification → Confirmation by email → After registration.

Note.

Pools must be configured before setting up integration in DCImanager. Read more in Integration with BILLmanager.

How to create a data center

Note

A data center created for integration with DCImanager 5 is not suitable for integration with DCImanager 6. 

For correct operation of processing module, create a DCImanager 6 managed data center in BILLmanager:

  1. Go to Integration → Data centers → Add.
  2. Enter a data center Name at your discretion.
  3. Enable DCImanager 6 managed data center feature.
  4. Specify DCImanager 6 Location ID, from which servers will be provided when ordered.
  5. Specify the Sorting order.
  6. Press Ок.

How to connect the processing module

To configure integration:

  1. Сreate the processing module in Integration → Processing modules → Add → Dedicated server → DCImanager 6.
  2. Enter information for integration with DCImanager 6.
  3. Specify internal (within BILLmanager) parameters of the processing module.

Note:

After server configuration has been changed on DCImanager 6 side, we recommend to launch the processing module configuration update on the BILLmanager side manually: Integration → Processing modules → Config.
