Create Relation

You use the Create Relation button to launch CA CMDB and display the Create New Configuration Item Relationship page to provide relationship definition capability directly from Visualizer.

Note: This function is available to roles that have MODIFY permission for Relationships and VIEW permission or higher for Configuration Items.

To create a relationship using CA CMDB

1. From the graph, select up to two CIs.
2. On the Visualizer graph, click Create Relation.

   The Create New Configuration Item Relationship page launches in context. If two CIs are selected, one is shown as Provider and the other one as Dependent.

3. Select the relationship type from the drop-down list.

   Note: Specify the Relationship Type to save the graph with the new relationship.

4. Click Save.

   The new relationship is saved and the Create Relationship page closes.
