CMDB Naming Standards

[ejv]

Can anyone share a CMDB Naming Standard document that you have incorporated into your ServiceNow solution that could help Wabtec with our initial loading of our configuration items?

Wabtec is the company I work for.  Naming standards?  Any type of recommendation where naming standards on the different classes would be applicable in providing a means to understand what the CI represents.

Service now has many classes where your ci can be accommodated . Like Linux server will go to Linux class , esx will go to esx classes. You can use service now class manager to know the ci class details and suggested relationship s. Here is the list ..https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/london-platform-administration/page/administer/reference-pages/reference/r_TablesAndClasses.html Now coming to ci naming best practices it must be discussed with actual technology teams and take inputs . As a part of ci build process it must be covered. Ci names which indicates about dc+app+env . Hope I understood your query. Regards RP
