Prevent ITOM Cloud discovery to discover Retired machines

[Nisha30]

Hi Experts,

There are many threads and explanation documentation , but opening a fresh one to understand as what would be the best way to stop discovering Non-operational / Retired servers from cloud.

We have discovery in place but

This consumes license and hence need to restrict .

Is scripting needed here to avoid insert of new CI (retired) or in CI CLASS MANAGER the identification rule resolved this problem.

New to RTE so if anyone can suggest

Thanks

@Nisha30 IRE Data Source rule for vmis and for source 'SG Azure' and checkbox 'Insert not allowed' => no vmis will be created via 'SG Azure' => from my understanding not what you want

Before BR on insert with condition
'Discovery Source is 'SG Azure'
In the script write an if statement like:
if(install_status!=1) current.setAbortAction(true);

This should fit your needs

Kind Regards

Thomas
