Generating a review schedule
You can use the configuration catalog to set up review schedules. Use review schedules to review active configurations on a monthly, weekly, or yearly basis. You can review configurations that might contain outdated hardware or software. When you review a configuration, you can create a new version of the current configuration and relating all new CIs.
After you generate a review schedule, you can perform the following tasks:
