Create a CI Detail Page

A CI Detail page is required to support attribute display for CIs that are associated with a new extension table.

To create the CI detail page

1. Using the Web Screen Painter Schema Designer, click File, New and create a form based on detail_extension.template.
2. Save this new form as detail_extension.htmpl, where extension is the name of the extension table.
3. Follow the instructions listed in the file, replacing the ***EXTENSION*** string with the name of the new extension table (defined previously).
4. Save the file with all changes.

The CI Detail page includes two attribute sections:

• common attribute section named cmdb_detail.htmpl
• family-specific section (the Attributes tab) named nr_cmdb_extension_tab.htmpl, where extension is the name of the new extension table.

Continue to the next section to Create the CI Attributes Tab.
