Relationship Management with i-doit
Reduce the effort of documentation for the replacement of devices

The replacement of network components is often executed within a few minutes. What inevitably happens next that does not please a hero of the fast-paced rescue team, and much less after nightly emergencies: documenting the changes in the CMDB. But i-doit would not be the darling of the Admins, if there was no suitable little helper.

The i-doit Replacement add-on transfers relations

Often there are hundreds of relations that are documented for a switch or patch field. If you want or must document the lifecycle of all devices in a clean way the serial number of the previous object cannot simply be overwritten. Both the old and the new device have their own life cycle and their data has to be traceably tracked. That’s why even in the CMDB everything has to be unplugged and newly connected.

With the Replacement add-on you re-connect relations from one object to another with a few mouse clicks. And finally documenting is even quicker than the actual change. And you put the data quality in the right way. In the future, nothing will be forgotten.
