How 'Duplicate of' field in CMDB works?

Hello,

Is the field 'Duplicate of' on CMDB table still valid? If so how does it work?

I have 2 windows servers with same name. But the 'Duplicate of' is not showing anything.

Properties that affect processing of duplicate CIs

During CMDB Identification, processing of sets of duplicate CIs is determined by:
  • Property glide.identification_engine.skip_duplicates (true by default).
  • Property glide.identification_engine.skip_duplicates.threshold (5 by default).
  • Number of duplicate CIs in a set.

For information about how these properties affect the management of duplicate CIs, see Detecting duplicate CIs.

Check the above properties. I hope this helps.

I am also facing the same issue. Did you get any solution for that?
