Viewing a BMC Atrium CMDB audit of a CI

The BMC Atrium CMDB audit shows information about a selected CI, as stored in BMC Atrium CMDB. The audit includes the date that the CI was created, the user ID of the creator, the date it was last modified, and so on.

For example, Allen Allbrook, a configuration administrator at Calbro Services, thinks that the data for a computer system might be inaccurate. He wants to view the audit history of the CI so that he can see all the modifications to this computer system during its history. He can investigate why the data is no longer accurate.

1. Open a CI, as described in Using search.
