Whilst
I do not remember it being officially announced at BUW, I am told that it
was.
**
In fact, I had a fairly long conversation with the Development Manager
for the CMDB as well as the Product Manager for CMDB and both of them agreed
that they already were working on a patch for ITSM 6 suite of applications
(the release date for the patch is still not finalized as of
yet) that would work with CMDB 2.0.1 on AR 7.0.1 which as per some
conversation should be releasing soon Oct/Nov timeframe. This was based on the
feedback they recieved from various customers that they would not consider
moving to ITSM 7.0, but wanted Federation, CI Viewer, better Reconciliation
that is available in CMDB 2.x.
I don't believe that this is an officially announced. However, this has
been confirmed and I have been having further conversations with the
development manager since BUW about related things, so that we can plan for it
from a logistics perspective.
Cheers,

This
was a fairly hot topic at BUW, it seems a lot of people would like
to use
the CI Viewer from CMDB 2.0 without having to upgrade to ITSM
7.
However, nothing was promised at all by BMC, there was no
"official"
announcement that I'm aware of. It was merely a discussion
topic. It may
be something that BMC are now working on based on the BUW
feedback, but
that's about all I took away from it.
As far as the
effort goes, it will obviously vary but CMDB 1.1 - CMDB
2.0 will be a lot
simpler than ITSM 6 - ITSM 7.

First issue: ITSM 6 on ARS 7.
I know that works. So let's proceed to
the real unknown: The
CMDB 2.0/ITSM 6 relationship.
The word I heard was that there was no
*official* integration between
the two, though they may offer a way to do
that sometime. But consider
the architecture - what's different about
CMDB 1.x and 2.0? The CDM.
It seems to me that if you're willing to
modify (if necessary) your
mapping from your ITSM 6 apps to the CMDB 2.0
CDM, and update your
interfaces to the CMDB, specifically from the Asset
console, I can't
think of a reason it could not work. Is it
potentially labor intensive?
Yes. Is it impossible? I think
not. Is it worth the effort? That's
up to you.
The only
potential glitches I see are potential ones with some
executables, but I
think that could be dealt with. The problem is that
I don't know
anyone who's actually done it.

ITSM6 and CMDB2 on ARS7
Hi,
I'm under impression that someone
... on BMCUW told everybody that ITSM6
will work with CMDB2 and ARS 7
(patched).
Is it
correct?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Response
from "You-Know-Who":
Unfortunately I do not have any documentation
which verifies that ITSM 6
will work with CMDB 2.0. I have checked
the compatibility matrix and we
have no official compatibilty for ITSM 6.0
and CMDB 2.0.
If and when we receive a statement of
compatibility and a whitepaper we
will be able to assist with this
configuration.
