  • 1.  CMDB Relationship limit

    Posted Mar 03, 2017 07:25 AM

    Hi,

     

    What is the best practise and do we have any system restriction on the limitation on the CI relationship.

     

    For one of the CI we have more than 40000 relationships and am worried if this will cause  applicaiton crash.

     

    Regards,

    Sharath, please take a look at this tech doc:

    https://www.ca.com/us/services-support/ca-support/ca-support-online/knowledge-base-articles.TEC1157257.html 

    when you have more than 40000 relationships for a single CI, certain this raises some concerns. For example,

    there will be some performance impact when these relationships are listed or searched. For the analyst who looks

    at these relationships, he/she would have some difficulty to see thru the real relationships between them. It seems to

    me more level/hierarchy way to establish the relationships should be better. my 2cents to start discussing this topic.

    Thanks _Chi
