Were can I find the "PI 2.0 plugin" + Consequence of not converting to "Life Cycle Stage/status"

[SørenP]

Hi guys

According to the CMDB 5.0 white paper (end page 19 -start page 20), I can read that the plugin(?) "PI2.0" - "will eliminate synchronization efforts between legacy configuration item statuses (intall_status,
operational_status, hardware_status) with Life Cycle Stage and Life Cycle Stage Status."

1.

I can't find this plugin in my PDI or in any customer instance that I know of - and it's is not mentioned in the "CMDB Lifecycle Stage and Stage Status Migration" paper from ServiceNow, here they only mention "Activate the CSDM Activation plugin com.snc.cmdb.csdm.activation" - any hint?

2.

It is not 100% clear to me what the consequence(s) of not converting to "Life Cycle Stage/status" is?

Thanks in advance!

2. None. Everything will remain as is. It could be that in the future logic is set on those fields, but for now it will be a logical reflection of the other status fields.

I have read the playbook and did the life cycle enablement (mapping and plugin) with no result.
But I am not wiser about what PI 2.0 actually is and how to enable PI 2.0

Hi Damhoej

So the sync scripts didn't work for you (between legacy and "lifecycle")?

In which situations do you need the sync between the legacy "statues" and "lifecycle"?

On my PDI after I have enabled the life cycle sync it dows not sync.
