How the CAB Process Works

The CAB is responsible for reviewing all major changes to production systems. CAB members are notified that a change request requires their approval, and they do the following:

  1. List change requests that the CAB must review.
  2. Open the CAB Console and view the information contained in the request.
  3. View the business justification, implementation plan, configuration items, and supporting documentation associated with the request and decide to approve it or reject it.
  4. Approve or reject the change order, and the next change order in the list appears automatically.

    The person requesting that the change is notified automatically that the CAB status is updated for the change request.
