Difference between the CI Attributes "Classification" and "Used for" on the OOTB Server Class

Hi Community,

can anyone clarify the difference between the two attributes "Classification" and "Used for" and how they should be used? And is there any documentation for OOTB attributes? (could not find any for the server class).

Many Thanks

Simon

"Classification" is introduced in the new CSDM model, but not sure, what it is doing on the Server class, if it is on the server class it maybe is a custom field? Used for as always been there and should be to map is this is a production server etc.

Hi Stig,

Thanks for the input! They are both OOTB (Also present in my madrid dev instance).

I dont seem to have classification in my NY, I have Classifier, which is a reference field

Interesting, as my NY dev instance has both 'Classification' and 'Used For' also. I notice that the choice list for 'Used for' is empty, however 'Classification' has 6 values as per the screenshot below. Usually, this kind of detail would come from the related application service.
