このタスクについて

When you create a power circuit connection record, it creates a corresponding configuration item (CI) record in the circuit [cmdb_ci_circuit] table. To learn more, see Data model.

手順

1. Navigate to Workspaces > Network Inventory Workspace.
2. Select the list icon (), and then select Inventory > Power Circuits.
3. Select New.
4. On the Details tab, in the Circuit section, fill in the fields.
   To learn more about the fields, see Power circuit form.
5. On the Details tab, in the Configuration section, fill in the configuration information for the power circuit.
   To learn about the configuration fields, see Commonly used network asset instance configuration fields.
6. To create the Telecommunications Network Inventory attributes for the Power Circuit form, select Set Inventory Attributes.
   When you select the Set Inventory Attributes button, it creates the TNI CI Attributes record in the CI table as well as the Telecommunications Network Inventory CI Attributes tables and makes a relationship with the CI record.

   注:

   If you select Save without selecting Set Inventory Attributes, it creates a CI record but not a Telecommunications Network Inventory CI record. In the network inventory workspace, the Set Inventory Attributes is visible only for the Telecommunications Network Inventory roles.

7. On the TNI CI Attributes form, fill in the fields.

   To learn more about the Telecommunications Network Inventory attribute fields, see TNI CI Attributes form.

8. Select Save.

   The Telecommunications Network Inventory attribute fields are displayed on the Power Circuit form after you save the TNI CI Attributes form. The Set Inventory Attributes doesn't appear when you reopen the CI record.

9. To add the attachments, such as graphics or documents, select the attachment icon ().
10. Select Save.
    The related tabs appear on the form. You can view or modify the related tab information. To learn more about the related tabs, see Related tabs in the Network inventory forms.
