I can confirm Jim's experience. I also heard it was under way from Doug.
Furthermore, during one on the ITSM Ver 7 presentations, Mr. Simon King of
BMC
announced during Q and A, that it is underway and will be announced as a
supported configuration.
Mr. King is part of the management team for the ITSM suite.

I had a brief conversation with Doug on this topic at BMCW.... The
retrofit
is under development and I am anxiously awaiting it.

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.

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.
