Fields size monitoring and harmonization

I have encounter this issue with CMDB

 

The intune table definition sets the IMEI field size a 255. Of fact, the IMEI discover by Intune is very long. For example the mobile devices with 2 SIMs have a very long string as IMEI

356796117431794,CTSubscriptionSlotTwo:356796117353238

The CMDB Handheld Computing Device table that is supposed to hold the this information in the IMEI field has a field size that is set to 40.

 

Why this is not harmonized at OOTB level and monitored?

Hello @naxis alx ,

 

From my experience I have not encountered this issue yet. We have been using this class with the OOTB 40 length string without any issue. But you do seem to have a good use case which I believe should be reported to ServiceNow via a HI ticket so they can harmonize it for future releases. I don't think it has been as of now.

 

In the meanwhile, you can change the length of this attribute as a workaround even that being an OOTB table without much issue.
