Working with CIs and relationships

This topic gives you an overview of the various tasks that you can perform on a CI and relationships between CIs using CMDB forms.

You can directly access the following form URL to manage the component and relationship attributes:
http://<midTierServer>:<port>/arsys/forms/<ARServer>/<classNameSpace:formClassName>
where,
- <midTierServer> is the name of the web server where the BMC Remedy Mid Tier is installed
- <port> is the port number of the web server where the BMC Remedy Mid Tier is installed. The default port is 8080
- <ARServer> is the name of the Action Request server
- classNameSpace is the namespace of the class to which the service model component belongs
- formClassName is the name of the class to which the service model component belongs to
For BMC CMDB version 19.02 and later, you can edit the component and relationship attributes in the CMDB Explorer. For more information, see Impact Model Designer capabilities available in BMC CMDB.
