Re: 911: Trusted Dataset CMDB _ADDM 7.6.4
In previous versions of ITSM a CI would fail to be created if its categorisation didn't exist in the product catalog. The trusted dataset allowed the automatic creation of product catalog entries and hence CI creation would then not fail. That's all the trusted dataset concept meant - create product catalog entries automatically. The trusted relationship doesn't exist as such in 7.6.4; CIs can be created regardless of their categorisation. The normalisation engine now corrects categorisation and has the setting to allow product catalog entries to be created automatically if you want them to be (as I said in a previous email I don't like doing this). Are you expecting the trusted relationship to do something else?

Checking the BMC.ADDM dataset configuration When using ITSM 7.0 with a backwards compatibility patch, you also need to ensure that the BMC.ADDM dataset is trusted. To do this: 1. Access the Home page from BMC Remedy User or a browser. 2. Access the Application Administration Console. 3. Go to the Custom Configuration page. 4. From Foundation, select Products / Operational Catalogs. 5. Select Trusted Datasets for Product Catalog and click Open. 6. Select the BMC.ADDM dataset for Dataset Name and save the record.

Re: 911: Trusted Dataset CMDB _ADDM 7.6.4
I assume you want the CIs arriving in the ADDM dataset to create product catalog entries automatically? Personally I don't recommend this but it just depends on your processes to fix the bad product catalog entries that arrive: - proactively by them failing normalisation and not being allowed to be reconciled then you fixing this using aliases or adding new product catalog entries - allowing the product catalog entries to be created automatically and reconciled then weeding out the bad ones and updating the CMDB CIs To allow CIs in a dataset to create product catalog entries you select the 'Allow new product catalog entry' option for the dataset in the Normalisation Engine configuration.
