The problem we saw with the DSL is that it is full of software that you will never use in a professional environment. A filter to take out the rubbish (such as games software) would be a good thing. Roger Justice writes:

Do you know if the DSL is an industry provided standard - that could be relied upon to be cross vendor? And if so - how would a custom Remedy CMDB get the list and update service? -John John David Sundberg 235 East 6th Street, Suite 400B St. Paul, MN 55101 (651) 556-0930-work (651) 247-6766-cell (651) 695-8577-fax [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Dec 20, 2006, at 11:08 AM, Easter, David wrote: The DSL also stores the location of IT approved software.

BMC will be providing this information as a bi-monthly download to update your files. The concept is to use this as a standard to get the name for any software you are using both commercially available such as word or is it MS word or is it Microsoft Word, or that you have created and distributed within your organization. ITIL also has the the DHS for hardware.

Hi everyone, I am planning on upgrading the Asset Management module to V7, and want
to know if I should install the DSL. What is it? I tried to find the info on the BMC Remedy website, but my web-browsing skills must be lacking. Can anyone out there help me?
