I'll take that as a "no". . . :^) Are people in general not using the CMDB? It seems like there is not a lot of information or experience available here or from support.

From: Logan, Kelly Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2012 11:29 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: CMDB CI and relationship templates Hello all, I have a question about Atrium CMDB and Asset Management 7.6.4 - I have noted that there is a functionality called Configuration that lets you record the financial information for a set of assets and link it to specific CIs, but is there anything similar that allows you to record standard structural configurations (CI and relationships)? Or do I need to go to Configuration Management to get that? Say I want to create template for all new application servers that includes a virtual server with 2Mb memory, two network ports, 60 Gb drive resource on a SAN server, and the relationships between each, is there a place for this? One thought that does occur to me is that I could set up a 'template' dataset, put in these configurations as CIs and relationships, and then when I wanted to create one, have a reconcile job that merges but does not delete the 'template' CI/relationships. Has anyone tried this, or is there a better way that's already built in? Kelly Logan, Sr. Systems Administrator (Remedy, Planview), GMS ProQuest | 789 E. Eisenhower Parkway, P.O.
