Does this filter pick or choose which CTM:People entries to populate into 
BMC_People?

I am about to re-develop my integration that takes LDAP data from a SQL Server 
and shoves it into CTM:People, User, and CTM:PeoplePermissionGroups and 
maintains those records with a live feed.  There are currently about 266,400 
people and user records, of which 336 are support staff (that generates about 
341,000 CTM:PPG recs).  When we upgraded to 7.6.04.01 we saw 475 records 
created in the BMC.CORE.BMC_Person table; three more have "appeared" since 
then.  We have made no effort to deal with these, having no experience with the 
CMDB or reconciliation.  After the upgrade we turned off all of the integration 
filters and AIE jobs, although RRR|Chive updates the individual tables from 
production nightly.

Personally, I can only see adding the IT staff initially, but it will probably 
be easiest to filter to the active faculty/staff records (14,170 recs including 
student employees - they have a custom role flag in CTM:People that is set by 
the integration).  Has anyone already tackled this, and able to shed some light 
on the process??

An OOB filter triggers off of CTM:People that creates/ updates BMC_PERSON just 
push to CTM:People and set 'z1d Action' to "PEOPLESYNC_CREATE" or 
"PEOPLESYNC_UPDATE". You will be able to see a new record create in BMC.Sandbox 
and the reconcile into your CMDB.

Good afternoon,

As I'm upgrading from ITSM 7.0.3 to 7.6.4, one thing I'd like to do is continue 
to have my People data updated from Active Directory.  For 7.0.3, I built an 
integration where some escalations run and dump the People data into a staging 
form that then goes into CTM:People.  However, now that I have the BMC_People 
class in the CMDB, I'm considering if it would be better to put the data there 
instead, and use that to update the People data.

I'd like to know what your thoughts are on this.  It's obviously easier for me 
to take my pre-existing code and migrate it to my 7.6.4 servers, but if there 
is an advantage to loading it into BMC_People first, I'm open to going that 
route instead.

Thanks,

Shawn Pierson
