The purpose of the view cmdb_class?

[Johan13]

Hi Forum!

Just came across the view cmdb_class (not a table). Since it's a join of cmdb_ci (ande therefor contains allt the CMDB data) I was wondering what the purpose of this table is?

I saw that it's used in some PA indicator sources. In the join it says: "Join the cmdb_ci and sys_db_object tables to create a database view to show the class label in the configuration item."

BR,

What is the name of the view? I see out of the box views that have good descriptions and none of them seem to be created they this way.

I don't see any OOB views like that. Can you recheck whether the Name starts with u_? Also what does the 'Description' and 'Label' say?

[Johan13]

Yeah, it's a database view, join between cmdb_ci and sys_db_object tables.

So not a form view.

So what is the exact Name, Description and Label of that database view? I don't see any OOB database views like that.
