Re: Patch 004 for AR CMDB now available (Read if you want to install ITSM 7.0 on ARS 7.1)
I thought the EXACT same thing. BMC recommends having separate development/test/production environments for their customers - I hope they would hold themselves to a similar standard. In the Linux world, even-numbered major kernel revisions are considered stable - odd-numbered revisions are considered test/development/unstable. Those of us who like to run on the bleeding edge know we're playing with fire, but we are at least AWARE of this fact due to the numbering system. It would be nice if BMC had a similar system. Or do they and I am not aware?

The CMDB 2.1.0 installer also has a defect when attempting to upgrade 2.0.1.003 on ARS 7.1 - it actually tries to install 2.0.1.004 during the 2.1.0 upgrade process, but hangs before completion. I am waiting on a fix for the 2.1.0 installer now.
