Dear Rick, We had the same confusion and we decided to create a categorization class under BMC_ComputerSystem for the PDA's since the PDA's are actually glorified computer systems. Also the best thing to do would be to get the Telecommunication extensions which does include a separate class for Phones, If that's not possible I would categorise the Phones under BMC_Equipments.
Hope this helps Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 5/30/07, Rick Cook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
** I'm doing some importing non-discoverable assets into the CMDB (2.0.1), and I'm in a quandary about which class would be best for PDAs, Cell Phones, etc. BMC_Equipment looks like a good choice, except that many of them have associated components, which it seems should go into some related subclass, in which BMC_ComputerSystem would work better as the Class. But ComputerSystem really doesn't fit that type of Asset. There really aren't very many attributes to import, and nothing specific enough to necessitate adding even an attribute to an existing class, though adding Categorizations is definitely an option. Has anyone made this choice before? *Rick Cook* __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___
