How to Associate an MDR to a CI Manually

You can associate MDRs with a CI manually by using the Federated CI Mapping facility found in the CA CMDB Administration tab, in the MDR Management branch of the tree.

Before you associate a CI to an MDR, do the following:

1. Create the MDR definition (if it does not exist).
2. Create the CI definition (if it does not exist).
3. Identify the unique Federated Asset ID of the CI that you want to connect to the MDR. This ID is MDR-specific, so it is beyond the scope of this document.

   Note: To identify Federated Asset ID, consult your MDR documentation.
