Working with the Configuration Management Database (CMDB)

The Configuration Management Database (CMDB) contains:

Discovered information about your IT infrastructure such as devices, networks, applications, and users

Information derived from your discovered infrastructure, including network topology and inter-device relationships such as the relationship of WLAN Access Points to Controller, and Virtual Machines to ESX Hosts.

Information about system objects such as rules, reports, business services, event types, networks, and ports/protocols

You can find and manage all this information under the CMDB tab.
