I certainly can understand those concerns.. I guess if we ever are to venture into this territory, I'll have to make damn sure I have DB backups at every possible change on the application that might impact the applications definitions or its meta data..
>From what I've been told, messing with the meta data with the CMDB application >is not reccommended at all, but that doesn't really mean it can't be done - >I'm pretty sure there are ways out there but they may be long and time >consuming.. That brings me to asking - Is there a whitepaper on CMDB's architecture and its meta data? Or am I on my own to uncover it? ----- Original Message ---- From: Rick Cook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2007 10:54:56 PM Subject: Re: CMDB 2.0 compatibility with ARS 6.x...

(Corrected to Change 6.0) ** Joe, the version of ARS is irrelevant - CMDB 2.x needs to be manually mapped to ITSM 6. The white paper, if it ever comes out, will tell you how to map that, but without it, you're on your own.

(Corrected to Change 6.0) ** Disregard my previous email... my question actually is is 6.0 Change running on a 7.x ARS platform compatible with CMDB 2.0? I know this might not be supported if you go strictly according to the compatibility matrix but am wondering if this combination could be made workable either directly or using some sort of a workaround.. Any good reasons besides the compatibility matrix why it would not work? Joe ____________________________________________________________________________________ No need to miss a message.
