Re: Discovery 1.6
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... Tauf Chowdhury | Forest Laboratories, Inc.

Re: Discovery 1.6
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. Tauf Chowdhury | Forest Laboratories, Inc.

Re: Discovery 1.6
Is there a way to execute only one of the discovery task to be pushed to BMC.Import.Topology. I discovered new assets and I need them to be in BMC.Import.Topology right away, and I can set up a job to push from Topology to BMC.Asset. In a message dated 11/18/2009 6:22:24 P.M.
