Add a configuration item in Discovery Event Manager

Applies to User Roles:

System Administrator

As inventory changes within your organization, you will need to add new configuration item (CI) types, or possibly update or delete others, to keep your inventory records up-to-date for the Discovery Event Manager tool. You can manage the CI types in the CI record type table.

To add a configuration item in Discovery Event Manager:

  1. Click Tailoring > Web Services > Discovered Event Manager Rules. The Discovery Event Manager form opens.
  2. Click New.
  3. Enter the name of the new CI record type.
  4. Select a table from the table list, and then click Next.
  5. Enter the Condition for the CI record type. The CI record type is added to the records table.

    • The condition must ensure that only one rule is applied when the web service request is processed.
    • An empty condition evaluates to true by default.
  6. Click Save.
  7. Click OK.
