How are CMDB Orphan tasks created?

[Adam Robbins1]

Hi,

How would I ensure that tasks are generated if Orphans are found when running the CMDB health jobs?

I enrolled in the on-demand CMDB Fundamentals course, but the content covered through the videos was a few versions old.  It told me to go to Configuration > Health Preference, then click Health Metrics.  In the video there was an option for Tasks with a slider, but that seems to have changed now.

Thank you,

Adam Robbins

Hi Adam,

I am still seeing the option:

Go to Health Preferences. Then select Health Metrics. Then select Orphan.

You should see the slider to create tasks:

Thank you Martin!  The piece I was missing was selecting Orphan in the Select Metric field.

Thanks,

Adam
