Hi everyone.

Does anyone out there know of good reasons NOT to overlay AST:BaseElement?

The short story is that I need to see 'LastScanDate' from
BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement, along side my asset data.

AST:BaseElement seems like the natural place to do this, since it joins
AST:Attributes and BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement. All I should need to do is
create an overlay and bring in 'LastScanDate' from BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement
... super easy.

And in fact, I have done this on my dev box, and it SEEMS ok, but then I
got to thinking about it ...

In the past, I made the horrendous mistake of overlaying
BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement, and THAT truely hosed my system on upgrade (even
though I deleted the overlay prior to upgrading). I'd hate to stumble into
that sort of minefield again.

A quick search on communities didn't seem to turn up a whole lot, so I
thought I'd ask here.

Anyone have experience overlaying AST:BaseElement? Did it work out for you?
Cause nightmares?

Thanks eveyone

-Andy
