Our database owner does not see value in having CIs for the system databases: master, model, msdb, tempdb, mssqlsystemresource. He has asked us to hide or otherwise eliminate them from the CMDB.
We have considered:
- prevent discovery from creating these CIs, perhaps via a pattern extension
- create a business rule or data policy to delete or retire them
- filter our views so that these CIs still exist, but aren't visible to anyone but admins
Has anyone else encountered a similar situation in their environment? If so, how did you handle it?
