Normalization of discovered software


The BMC CMDB Product Catalog (PC) together with the CMDB Normalization Engine (NE) provides consistent and standardized values for these important attributes.

  • ModelManufacturerName and MarketVersion attribute values are attributes that can be normalized by the Normalization Engine after appropriate normalization rules and Product Catalog entries are created.
  • C, T, and I (CTI) attribute values for the BMC_Product CI can be updated in Product Catalog. By updating the CTI values through Product Catalog, updates are also made to all related BMC_Product CIs of the same name in Product Catalog.
