Hi HAM colleagues,
Getting and keeping an up 2 date AMDB/CMDB is key to support operational processes: No news here.
When we are installing a high number of equipment we update the AMDB using the Asset Audit capabilities. We create one or more Assets audits for the location/room where the equipment is installed, scan the installed equipment and Asset audit updates fields like Asset state and Asset location as result of the audit. Furthermore also a 'formal' Asset audit is created and executed as part of the Asset audit procedures.
I am looking for an Asset State and Substate that can be assigned to an Asset as soon as the Asset is installed but the AMDB has to be updated.
My suggestion here: Asset state is In use (as the Asset is installed and already really in use) but as of now there is no Asset_Substate available for this Asset_State.
Has anyone solved this topic already or does anyone has suggestions on the way how to tackle this issue? Immediate AMDB update is in our case unfortunately out of the question.
Many thanks for your reactions in advance,
Ed
