Review the Managed Change States in Your Environment

The Configuration Administrator reviews the Managed Change States in the CA SDM environment. Change verification initiates when the status of a Change Order changes to a Change State that CACF manages, such as Verification in Progress.

Note: The Configuration Administrator can customize which state in the Change Order lifecycle initiates change verification. The administrator can also customize which states allow you to modify change specifications when implementation starts.

Follow these steps:

1. On the Administration tab, click CA CMDB, Configuration Control, Managed Change States.
2. Click Implementation in Progress to open the managed status detail page.
3. Review the details about the managed status.

   For example, you decide to make the Implementation in Progress status allow editing change specifications, and also enable Change Verification Active. This example indicates an active change verification process, and that you can edit values when the Change Order sets to the Implementation in Progress status.

4. Close the page.
