Kathy,

I know you mentioned in the past that in your environment, the
developers for some insane reason, is moving data from IMPORT.TOPO to
BMC.ASSET using backend DB scripts and NOT using the Recon engine.
Because of this, it's hard for us to tell you what the impact of you
purging IMPORT.TOPO will do. The reason is that we do not know what key
fields these custom scripts are using or even how this is done. 

In a normal environment, the Recon job OOB for Topology actually does
delete the data from the dataset so  you could just the purge job to
delete all the data in IMPORT.TOPO and then resynchronize your
application.

 

This is one more reason your developers should reconsider using the
Recon engine instead of custom scripts...

The developer recommended deleting all of IMPORT.TOPO (not BMC.ASSET).
What will happen if we delete all TOPO data and restart synchronization?

When you have organs - is this considered corrupted data?

Do you mean BMC.ASSET. If you data is corrupted you need to delete all
existing data and do a new Sync.

We have synchronization errors.  We have data in TOPO (with thousands of
orphans) and data in CMDB.asset.  One developer recommended deleting all
the data in TOPO and resetting synchronization. 
  
If we did this could we break something?

My default, the tool will load all CI's into IMPORT.TOPO after you do
the CMDB sync. Then, you must run a recon job to merge data into
BMC.ASSET.

 

Do you have a support contract with BMC? If so, go to the documentation
site or communities. There are a lot of docs and articles that may help
you.

Hi,

 

We do not want it to load into the CMDB (BMC.ASSET).  We want it to just
go straight to BMC.IMPORT.TOPO. Is there a way in discovery to get it to
go straight to TOPO manually.  We have it scheduled for 5:30 AM and we
need it to import into BMC.IMPORT.TOPO.

 

Is this possible?

you can open the Default view select the object you was to put
