Rule 3 - Mapping of Lansweeper Cloud Asset Types to CMDB CI Classes

Rule Synopsis

These are the rule/s that determine the target CMDB CI Tables/Classes used by CI Sync for each Lansweeper Asset Type.

  1. To search for an existing CIs during a CI Update Operation.

  2. To write new CIs during a CI Insert Operation.

Override Options

Customers may consider changing these mappings to target different CMDB CI Tables/Classes shown above.  This can often be required when existing CIs are already present in the CMDB (in Classes different to those shown below) and CI Sync is expected to correlate to the existing CIs.

Options

  1. The target CI Class can be amended per Lansweeper Asset Type.

  2. The target Related List/Child Record table can be amended per Lansweeper Asset Type.
