I know TOPO is populated from Discovery and bmc.asset is the gold set. My question is - can the developer open TOPO and set assets to MarkAsDelete directly? My understanding is that TOPO is updated directly from the discovery and I would not go into TOPO to set the assets as MarkAsDeleted, however I was just wondering if I misunderstanding something here. And now we are receving several of these errors: "cannot set to as Markasdeleted to "NO" on the relationship instance because of the relationship endpoints are MarkAsDeleted.
Are we getting this error because we are doing something wrong? The developer I work with does not want to use reconcilation because his scripts are doing the job and he said the reconcilation did not work for them. ----Original Message----- From: Roger Justice <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Feb 22, 2010 1:13 pm Subject: Re: Topology Dataset Discovery 1.6 The golden dataset is BMC.ASSET. The dataset that Discovery populates is called TOPO or something similar. Since you are not using the RE you are not using CMDB as designed and it may not be possible toi fix this issue. Is there a reason that you are not using the RE. -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Morris <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Feb 22, 2010 1:07 pm Subject: Re: Topology Dataset Discovery 1.6 ** Is it OK to manually mark assets as deleted in the topology dataset? Are you saying the source dataset is bmc.asset? If yes, should we delete these assets that are MarkedAsDeleted from bmc.asset? -----Original Message----- From: Roger Justice <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Feb 22, 2010 12:58 pm Subject: Re: Topology Dataset Discovery 1.6 If you were using the RE a purge Job would fix this problem since it would remove the assets from the source dataset that are marked as deleted in the BMC.Asset dataset. -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Morris <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Feb 22, 2010 12:20 pm Subject: Topology Dataset Discovery 1.6 ** Hi All, A co-worker is manually going into the topology dataset and marking assets as deleted.. During synchronization, we are getting errors that say "cannot set to as Markasdeleted to "NO" on the relationship instance because of the relationship endpoints are MarkAsDeleted. Why are we getting these errors? Are these manual updates causing this? Also we are not using the reconcilation engine. Scripts push the data from Topology to bmc.asset. ( I know this is ridiculous). _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _________________________________________________________________________ ______ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:[email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:[email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:[email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
