  • 1.  New Field in USM

    Posted May 02, 2017 03:42 PM

    Hi team,

     

    I need to append a column to Database, which is reflected in the USM. The idea is for this field to add a reference name to the devices, which is a different alias to the field name that indicates the default USM.

    Which table points the images attached in DB.

     

     

     

    Thank you very much for your collaboration,

    Richard

    First UIM does not support clients making any changes to the database schema.

    I doubt even if you made a change to the schema that the information would show in usm as you want

    or if it did temporarily it would not be removed by the discovery process.

     

    that being said the alias name is stored in the cm_computer_system_attr table.

    There is currently no way to manually add additional information into the database to be displayed in USM that is not created and captured by the product.

    May be you can make use of the User tag 1 and User tag 2 fields in the controller probe, the information which is updated here reflects in the USM details against the device
