Properties Widget

The Properties widget is used to present the main, general properties of the selected CI, either by means of a search result or by refocusing it. The properties presented are customized and differ for each selected CI type. CI Overview mode presents the most important properties and Widget Details mode displays additional properties. The information presented in this widget is logically connected to the selected CI and not according to the UCMDB Data Model.

To specify the properties that are displayed by this widget, see Configure Properties to be Displayed by the Properties Widget.

To display attributes with empty values (by default, attributes with empty values are not displayed), see Configure the Properties Widget to Show/Hide Empty Attributes.

You can prevent a CI's location and owner from being displayed in the Properties widget by setting the Show Location Details and Show Owner Details settings in the Infrastructure Settings Manager in UCMDB to False. By default, these settings have the value True, and the location and owner are displayed.

If the UCMDB administrator has configured a property as CMS Browser Editable, an Edit button is displayed. Click this Edit button to edit the attributes of these properties. When you are finished, click Save changes or Cancel.
