Notification Group in ITSM 7?

2007-11-08 Thread Monroe, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm just starting to learn ITSM version 7 but am currently using version
5. In version 5 you could create a general notification group.  The
Contracts forms then had a notification group field that we used to
notify these groups when a contract was expiring.  In version 7 did they
do away with notification groups?  If so, does anyone know the reasoning
behind this decision?  How are you supposed to create a group just for
notification purposes in version 7(i.e. the group can only be used for
contract notifications and not for Help Desk Requests or Change
Requests)?   Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

CMDB 2.0

2006-10-11 Thread Monroe, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is anyone using CMDB 2 for Frame Relay circuits?  What CIs did you have
to add to out of the box? What CIs are you using to show the circuit,
PVCs, DSUs, and what ports they connect to on the routers?

I'm thinking that we can use the BMC_HostedAccessPoint Relationship to
relate a BMC_AccessPoint to a BMC_System to show the circuit, but then
how do we show the PVC over this connection.  We want to stay close to
out of the box and the DMTF CIM (http://www.dmtf.org/standards/cim) as
much as possible.  

Thank you

Release Management in ITSM 7

2006-10-11 Thread Monroe, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>From what I have read in the User Guides, "the CMDB supports Release
Management" but that's about all the documentation I can find about
doing Release Management in Remedy.  When ITIL talks about the Release
Record, is that the Change Request form or the tasking form in Remedy?

Thank you
