ARS 7.1p5 SQL Server 2005 CMDB 2.1 p4 Have two datasets that were created from two different discovery sources. Each has several BMC Computer records. The reconciliation ID in both is set to 0 as neither has never been reconciled with another source. I created an identification activity to compare the two datasets matching on the Name. I set one of the datasets as the master in the activity. When I run the activity the second data set (non master) records gets assigned reconciliation IDs but the master dataset records do not. It is my understanding that the identification activity would match records in the two datasets and give them the same reconciliation id. If I then take the identification job and reverse the roles of each dataset and rerun the job the records on both sides will get reconciliation ids that match.
So it looks like you can do this sort of comparison but only when one dataset already has been reconciled? Does this make sense or am I missing something.
