# Automated Metric Intelligence setup

# Automated Metric Intelligence setup {#ariaid-title1}

When you initially set up Metric Intelligence, you can automate many
of the setup steps. For example, the automated setup configures a MID Server
for Metric Intelligence and creates a MID Server distributed
cluster which contains that MID Server.

## Before you begin

Role required: evt_mgmt_admin

## About this task

When the following conditions are met, the related link Setup Metric Intelligence appears on the MID Server form, enabling automated setup:

* The MID Server has been validated.
* The MID Server is in a running state.
* The property sa.metric.display.mid.setup.action is set to true (default value).

{#auto-setup__ul_plr_wpz_cgb}The Metric Intelligence automated setup performs the following setup tasks:

1. Configures the MID Server with the Operation Intelligence application
2. Adds the Metrics capability to the MID Server
3. Creates a new MID Server cluster of type 'distributed' set with a default port of 47100 for Apache Ignite
4. Adds the MID Server to the new MID Server distributed cluster
5. Creates a Metric Intelligence Metrics Extension and starts it
6. Opens the Metric Intelligence Metrics Context form. On this form, you can click the Setup REST Listener UI action to create the MID Web Server extension configured with the 'Enable REST Listener' option and default port 8097
{#auto-setup__ol_b2x_hqz_cgb}

If automatic setup fails, you can create a MID Server distributed
cluster manually, as described in the Use the Setup Metric Intelligence link only to create the first MID Server
distributed cluster that contains a single MID Server, with default
values. After the automated setup completes, you have to manually create any
additional MID Server distributed clusters or add Metric Intelligence
MID Servers.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllMID ServerServers.
2. Select the MID Server that you want to configure as a Metric Intelligence MID Server.
3. On the MID Server form, select Setup Metric Intelligence in the Related Links section.
4. In the newly created Metric Intelligence Metrics Extension form:
   1. Wait for the Status value to be Started.
   2. If configuring the MID Server for pushing, select the UI action Setup REST Listener.

   {#auto-setup__substeps_dmz_bph_fwb}  
   A notification appears about the MID Server extension being created. The MID Web Server Extension field appears and Enable REST Listener is checked. You can preview the MID Server Extension record to verify that its Status value is Started.
