    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    Attribute value discrepancy reports help identify conflicting data from multiple sources updating the same configuration item (CI). This enables better data quality and integrity across your CMDB.

    Procedimento

    1. Navigate to All > CMDB Workspace > CMDB 360.
    2. Select Create Query.
    3. In the query type window, select Compare attribute values.
    4. Define the query parameters:
      1. Select CI Class you want to analyze (for example, cmdb_ci_computer).
      2. Apply filters to narrow the scope (for example, Discovery source contains "TSOM").
      3. Select attributes to compare values across different discovery sources.
      4. Choose the sources to compare (for example, Discovery, SCCM).
      5. Opcional: Select Compare to CMDB to compare discovery source data to the current CMDB baseline.
      6. Click Save, provide a name for the query, and then click Run to generate the results.
    5. Opcional: Click Schedule to set up the query to run at defined intervals.

    Resultado

    The report displays a comparison of attribute values across sources:

    • Source 1: Current CMDB record.
    • Source 1 Value: Value updated by the most recent discovery source.
    • Source 2: Previous discovery source.
    • Source 2 Value: Value provided by the earlier discovery source.

    Each discrepancy is listed as a separate record when a CI has been updated by multiple sources.
