Our Computer Systems CI name follows this format:

Model:Serial Number

Our asset manager chose this & it seems to work well.

Subject: CI Name - Computer Systems


Hi everyone,

We currently have the CMDB installed, but are not using it to its
greatest potential.  We are only manually imported and updating the CI's
as people see fit.  The initial owner of this process had the Tag Number
and the CI Name as the same thing - the tag number of the CI.  Nice to
have duplicate data!

They now would like to change the CI Name to be something more
meaningful:
1. As we are on 7.0 and it shows the CI Name in the CI Viewer
2. Because virtual machines do not have tag numbers

What is everyone else using as the CI Name in the Computer Systems form?

Thanks!

Greg
