CMDB Workspace

[Nidhin Mohan]

Hi All,

Good Day.

I have just started exploring WORKSPACES and need help in understanding CMDB Workspace System Readiness, Requirement Analysis and Feasibility check. We are planning to implement CMDB workspaces in our environment. 

Appreciate your valuable suggestions and inputs.

BR,

Hi Nidhin, 

CMDB workspace is a great tool to get a 360-degree view of your CMDB. From health dashboard to CI class manager everything is avaialbe under it.  Configuration wise there are some pre-requisite plugins like 

com.snc.cmdb.csdm.activation

com.snc.cmdb.csdm

sn_cmdb_pg_templts

sn-cmdb-nlq-search

Most of the things will come automatically once you get it from the store. If you want to create some attestation you need to do some more configuration at your end. Intelligent Search is my go-to thing to show to clients for workshops. 🙂

Hi Nidhin, 

CMDB Workspace has a dependency on the following application(s) that can be purchased separately.
CMDB Page Templates
sn-cmdb-nlq-search
Workspace App Shell

We made sure the CMDB health shows 95% 

We have a proper KB article to explain what each tab does on the workspace. 

Though the workspace is a great way to show the CMDB at the same time it needs to be looked after. 

For example, we have some tasks that get created if a ci is stale, we have workflows that trigger and remediate the issue and close the respective task.
