ServiceNow CMDB: match mode
| Key | SI_Cmdb_Mode |
|---|---|
| Where | Settings > Connectors & CMDB |
| Type | enum |
| Default | match-only: only matched CIs are updated |
| Edition | pro |
What it does
Whether the ServiceNow CMDB connector only updates CIs it matched, or may also create CIs for assets it could not match.
When set
create-if-unmatched creates a CI for an asset ServiceNow does not know, when creating is also allowed (SI_Cmdb_AllowCreate).
When blank or default
Left blank, the default applies: match-only: only matched CIs are updated
Risk and how to reverse it
Affects what SecurityInsight writes to your CMDB or ticketing systems. Reversible for future runs, but changes already written there stay; the connector's own guards hold large or unsafe changes.
Requires
A SecurityInsight Pro licence.
Recommended
Keep the default. Change it when: When SecurityInsight should add the assets your CMDB is missing.
