Extending access to additional CI people organization relationships
The Supported by and Used by relationships add the appropriate company to field 112 to add access to the CI.
To add access for companies based on other relationships, such as Managed by, as an administrator, you can perform the customization described in this section, by considering the following caveats:
- Relationships that were created before you make the customization are not affected. Only relationships that are created after you make the customization are affected.
For example, if the CI for a server is already configured as Managed by Calbro Support, when you make the customization, users with access to Calbro do not have access to the CI unless you re-create the relationship. - This customization might be reset after a installing a patch or upgrading.
After installing a patch or upgrading, you must verify this customization. - Removing this customization does not remove the access that was granted by the use of this customization.
