Mike You will basically need one Identification and one Merge activity at the very basic level.
Start by creating an Idenitification Group. This will hold the Identification rules in order of how you wish the CIs to be matched. For example 'Name' = $Name$ would give you a match on CI Name. Next step is to create the Identification activity, so first ensure you have a Job to add it to. Add the Dataset BMC.CORE and specify the Identification Group you created before in the Group Name. If you wish to give CIs which did not match a Recon ID then set Mark Auto Identify to Yes. Add the BMC.Asset daaset, there is no need to Auto Identify as CIs in this dataset will be auto identified. Finally specify BMC.Asset as the Master dataset. You may optionally create a qualification group, leaving this blank will mean all CIs in the source dataset are identified. Once you've got that working come back for the merge lesson :) > > Hi Everyone, > > Just wondering if there are some nice easy instructions to reconcile some > CMDB data.?
