7.6.04 introduce the concept of Overlays to maintain Customizations. The CMDB was not included in the so it does not use Overlay for either the regular or join forms. There is also an added form with the release of 8, AST:Attributes that hold many of the Asset focused fields to increase the speed of the Reconciliation Engine.
If you are using the base ARS forms such as Group it is recommended to export and import these if they have been modified. You should get a lot more suggestions from the list. -----Original Message----- From: Roger Nall <[email protected]> To: arslist <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, Jul 14, 2014 6:16 pm Subject: CMDB and Remedy 8.1 Upgrade Greetings everyone. It has been way to long but hopefully I am back for a while. have a chance at a position in North Texas. This position will be upgrading a .6.4 system to 8.1. The system is mostly custom but also includes the Asset anagement module and CMDB. As someone who has only worked on 100% custom ystems this could present a problem. Here are my questions: 1. For changes to OOB modules done in Best Practices mode what happens to those hanges during an upgrade to 8.1. Are they preserved or do they need to be ecreated? 2. I have the same question as above for changes made in Base Development mode. 3. Does anyone have a list of processes or gotchas for upgrade the CMDB? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. hanks, Roger Nall _______________________________________________________________________________ NSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years" _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
