Identification Simulation

[Larry Youngqui2]

The Identification Simulation documentation specifies that the 'ITIL' role is required.    It appears that is technically correct, as the menu option allows an ITIL user to bring up the window.   But if a simulation is executed by a non-admin user, the results of an execution are not visible.

And the results from 'Execute' are blank.   No details are displayed;

When run as an Administrator, the utility returns the results, as expected.

We would like our 'Discovery_Admins' be given access to the simulation results.   Is there a way for the ACL's to be adjusted to provide this capability to non administrator users?

Ran into this same problem.  From what I can see you will need to create ACLs for the following 3 tables:

• cmdb_ie_context
• cmdb_ie_log
• cmdb_ie_run

An easy way to achieve this is to look up the table and add a check next to create Access Controls and then specify an existing role or create a new one.  You can further restrict the access by specifically creating only read ACL's, but from what I can only the Identification Simulation uses these tables.

Its been a while, but hope it helps.
