Hi,

Some cmdb_ci_db_mssql_instance records are reverting to "Absent". Some points to be noted are:

 

  1. Pattern - "MSSql DB On Windows" does not have install status been set in it. So by default instances should be "Installed".
  2. In my case, it has changed from Installed to Absent.
  3. I tried manually to change it back to Installed.
  4. Weirdly at 2:30 AM IST , everytime, the Install status changes from Installed to Absent and it shows updated by "System". (PFA the screenshot)
  5. I also tried looking at the system logs at this time frame (2:30 AM IST) to see if anything was logged but couldn't relate. (PFA the screenshot)

Note - There are no deletion strategies set and also discovery is not running for these. All the update activities are being done by the "System"

 

 

Any possible insights on this would be helpful.

 

-Thanks

Understanding you arent using discovery but this property (glide.discovery.adm.update.applications) may be something to look at?
