Gold Master Report

This report compares one or more CIs to another CI that has been designated as a Gold Master, and specifies which of the compared CIs are configured differently from the Gold Master CI.

The report compares the attribute values of the Gold Master CIs to the attribute values of the Compared CI of the same CIT.

Note

The Gold Master report only displays a CI attribute comparison if the values are different.
Gold Master reports are not available for federated CIs.

If a section is empty, it means that all attribute values of the Gold Master CIs and the Compared CIs for that CIT are identical. In such a case, the attributes in the next layer in the subgraph are compared, and the next one, and so on.

Once the compared CIs in a layer are found to have different attributes, the Gold Master report does not continue the comparison of other layers in the subgraph for differences.
