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,

Do you have Performance Analytics? If not then maybe it has to do with PA...

Name: cmdb_class

This appears to not be an out of the box Database view. When I check my PDI for database views where the name contains CMDB this is all I get.

My instance is on Washington DC so if you are on Xanadu it may be something new.
