Verification Log

The Verification Log list lets you view all CACF change verification activity. CACF logs each attempted update to the CI, and if the update was allowed. This log helps you determine which policy allowed or disallowed a change to a CI.

For example, search for a log that specifies a specific CI where CACF detected a variance or unverifiable change. The results display information such as the previous and discovered value, the verify status, and associated Incident.

You access the verification log from the following locations:

• On the Administration tab, click CA CMDB, Configuration Audit, Verification Log.
• On th Scoreboard click CMDB, Configuration Audit, Rogue Inserts or Rogue Updates.

The Verification Log tab for the specific object shows detailed events only pertaining to the object in question. View the log for the following objects:

• Verification Policies
• Change Orders
• Change Specifications
• CIs
• Incidents

Note: Verification log entries highlighted in red indicate that the corresponding change specification is either Failed Verification or Manual Verification Active, and requires further attention by the user.

The Discovered Attribute History list displayed in the Change Specification form lists all attribute values for the currently selected managed attribute and CI that were recently discovered by an MDR, whetherthey were actually authorized or loaded into the CMDB.

Use this list to assist in defining the planned value for the change specification. In the list you can view the format, case sensitivity, and so on of the previously discovered values so that you can determine an appropriate planned value pattern.
