Publish or unpublish a de-duplication template
After creating a de-duplication template, you must publish the draft template to make it available to run. You might also need to unpublish a published de-duplication template so it's temporarily unavailable for de-duplication remediation, until you republish it again.
Before you begin
- A template that you want to publish must not be in a published state.
- A template that you want to unpublish must be currently published.
- If the template that you want to unpublish is currently running or in the running queue, you must wait for the run to complete or cancel the run. In the De-duplication dashboard, select the Running tab, locate the template that you want to unpublish, and then select Cancel in the template's card.
Role required:
- To access the Management view in CMDB Workspace to perform de-duplication tasks, sn_cmdb_admin
- To perform this task, cmdb_dedup_admin or any role containing cmdb_dedup_admin (such as sn_cmdb_admin)
