Map asset state and CI install status

Map the asset State and Substate fields to the CI Install Status field. The Substatus field of the CI Install Status field should not be used for hardware CIs.

Before you begin

Role required: admin or asset

Note:

If you upgraded from a prior release and customized the AssetAndCISynchronizer script include before the upgrade, you must overwrite the customization and then recreate the custom mappings.

About this task

Asset synchronization does not update this field when hardware assets are updated. When you create the mapping, you can set the synchronisation direction from Asset to CI, but not from CI to Asset. For non-Hardware CI classes, you can set the synchronisation in both the directions.

The hardware and consumable assets don't have the Build state and Design substate because they are already prepared. Therefore, the Asset CI install status mappings table doesn't have a mapping for the Build state. For more details on asset states, see Set asset states and substates.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Asset > Administration > Asset-CI Install Status Mapping.
   By default, only custom mappings display. The list of mappings uses the filter condition of [Out of the box] [is] [False].
2. Click New.
3. From the Asset State list, select the state you want to map.
4. Optional: If available, select a substate from the Asset Substate list.
   Some of the asset states do not have a substate.
5. From the Configuration Item Status list, select the logically associated CI status you want to map.
6. From the Sync direction list, select the direction you want to drive the synchronization.
7. Select the Active check box to activate the mapping.
8. Click Submit.
