We have two Active Directory sites Cis,  we don't have this class available in CMDB.
Instead of creating new CMDB Active directory sites class, we need to map these Active Directory sites Cis into other best fit CMDB Class.
which one is the best class to map/record/store these Active Directory sites Cis in CMDB ?

Hi @pavan garige ,

 

cmn_location Class: The cmn_location class in the CMDB represents physical or logical locations within your organization. It is an ideal choice for recording information about your organization's geographical or logical locations.

cmdb_ci_service Class: If your Active Directory Sites play a crucial role in your organization's IT services, you may want to consider mapping them to the cmdb_ci_service class. This class is designed to represent various IT services and can be customized to capture the specific attributes of your Active Directory Sites.

Network Infrastructure Classes: Alternatively, you can choose to map your Active Directory Sites to classes such as cmdb_ci_network_switch, cmdb_ci_server, or cmdb_ci_appliance if these sites are closely related to your network infrastructure. These classes are suitable for recording information about network components and servers that are part of your infrastructure.
Thanks,

Anand
