About this task

You can manually create an OT device in the Industrial Workspace, which creates an OT Entity [cmdb_ot_entity] record and associates it with a CI.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Industrial Workspace.
2. Select the List () icon.
3. Under the Operational Technology (OT) module, select one of the following lists.
   • All OT Devices
   • OT Supervisory Systems
   • OT Control Systems
   • OT Field Devices
   • OT Computer and Servers
   • OT Network Gear
   • Industrial IoT (IIoT)
   • OT Systems
   • Unclassed OT Devices
4. Select Create New CI.
5. In the Create OT CI tab, complete the following sections as needed.
   • Select class
   • Required attributes

   Table 1. New CI form

   Field	Description
   Display name	The name of the OT device displayed in the record. Note: You can add any string value to this field. Multiple devices can have the same OT display name. This is meant for easier understanding of the OT device and is different from the unique CI name generated when you import OT devices from the staging table.
   Purdue level	Assigned Purdue level. The level ranges are 0–5. Note: To learn more about the Purdue levels in Industrial Control Systems, see https://subscription.packtpub.com/book/networking_and_servers/9781788395151/1/ch01lvl1sec10/the-purdue-model-for-industrial-control-systems.
   Device criticality	Measure of the relative risk to the site process if the device fails: 1 - Most critical 4 - Not critical
   Site	The top-level parent entity, or industrial site, where the device is located or assigned to.
