Looking for some advice either best practice or good avenue to go down. In our Instance we currently have integration with VMWare/vSphere to pull server/devices over and directly into the CMDB and it works great. The question I have is , is there a way to have VMWare/vSphere set hardware status /install status from VMWare/vSphere that would then sync down to the CMDB.
Server A gets retired and put into a dormant state,
Server B gets spun up to replace server A but no life cycle /hardware status /install status change is made on the VMWare/vSphere side of things so its up to me to try and catch these items on the fly and keep the CMDB accurate and up to date.
Any advice is helpful
