Hi guys.  For those of you using CMDB 2, what classes are you using to
store your network hardware (switches, routers, etc.).

We're just planning to use Computer System for almost everything
networking related.  We will just use different categorizations to track
it.

Yeah, I thought of that.  I'm surprised there is such a glaring hole in
the CDM...

I think I'd rather create a new class structure to capture this
information...

I believe in the CMDB 2.x best practices class they touch upon this item and 
recommend using the ComputerSystem class for tracking any networking HW with 
what Jarl has indicated below. We are in the process of using the mechanism 
recommended without creating our own classes, since this is an added 
overhead maintaining the system. However, there are couple of other areas 
where we have to use custom classes. I am not there yet in the 
implementation.

Re: CMDB2 - what class for network hardware?

2007-10-01 Thread Cleber Souza 
Hello,

We also use the BMC_Computer class. One important reason for that is that, if 
you're using the discovery tools, these CIs will be discovered and placed into 
the Computer Class initially. Having a custom class will be painful for you, 
since you'll have to work around it to move those CIs between the classes.
