So the best solution is to create a vendor form to get the data in? We are running on Solaris with Oracle DB(sandbox) and the AD of course is MS SQL. We were looking at having the AD server push the data into a separate Oracle DB and then create a vendor form against this table. But, is it possible to create a vendor form diretcly to the AD database? Would make things easier.

** Initially you want to map where you want this data to be stored and then use the Class Manager to modify any forms within the CMDB. I would suggest that you create a new staging form to import into and review the data. After you have gotten the data into the staging form you can use a filter to do a field match to import to the specific entry that matches. After all of this is tested you can then set an escalation to do the update. I would strongly suggest that you do not update the CMDB entry directly from the AD.

We have 6 fields in the AD that store computer system information and we want to get this data into the CMDB. We have setup LDAP against the AD but I have never tried or even thought about importing data stored in the AD to Remedy. Currently running ITSM 7.0.1 and CMDB 2.0.1.
