I am working with Xanadu and Yokohama Release (Patch 6) on different SN Environments and would like to convince our responsible colleagues for Configuration Item Health to use the CMDB Workspace integrated "Important actions" Container. The design and idea is very good but incompletely realized.
We create already Tasks per Health Metric. Orphan, Stale, Duplicate Entries are shown in their own Tiles.
But why are the tiles for the Metrics "Required" and "Recommended" are missing?
These are standard Health metrics.
Are they in scope of a future release or Version of CMDB Workspace?
I already read the SN Documentation about Home view in CMDB Workspace and about "Actions configurations" Table, which doesn´t support new entries.
I also recocnized here that other SN Users looking for similar solutions.

I wonder no one yet seems to either use the CMDB Workspace "Important actions" tiles or have the requirement to show here as well the "Required Attributes" and "Recommended Attributes" tiles to show here results for these two "out-of-the-box" Health Metrics. Even more I am suprised these are not available out-of-the-box.
My experience with a bigger SN Environment, Discovery and different Data Sources is, that even all that Automation, Dynamic CI Group etc. will fail and miss to provide mandatory attributes.
CMDB Health is here a well working solution to identify a missing Attribute and it would be simple via the -missing- Tile to provide the Health issue to the responsible (from multiple different) Configuration Managers.
I am investigating to build that missing piece to complete the "CMDB Health puzzle" 😉
