Make CI status to Absent

[Phani deepthi1]

Hi All,

We are working on discovery issues and we need to know is there a way to mark the status of CI to Absent when the server is not pingable or active for 10 days in CMDB.

Please help if there is a way to achieve this through script or any custom pattern needed.

Thanks

Hi @Phani deepthi ,

If you are running discovery it is better to have a scheduled job to check the 'Most Recent Discovery' field. For example, you could create a scheduled job that checks the Hardware table (cmdb_ci_hardware) for assets that haven't been discovered in x amount of days i.e. where Most Recent Discovery is more than 10 days back in your use case. Then the state is set to Absent.

You could then also create a report that shows you these CIs/Assets that have not been discovered in more than 10 days.

Regards,

Tom

U need to write a small script in the form of scheduled Job.

Fetch all the record from CMDB_CI table
