Training goals

code: UCMDB120-202011 | version: 2020.x

This course is designed to provide an understanding of the fundamental concepts and applications of the Universal Configuration Management Database (UCMDB). Participants learn visualization and mapping techniques to build business service views, implement change tracking, perform impact analysis, and enrichment of topology data and reporting. This course also covers the UCMDB Browser, which provide a different end-user perspective to analyze and consume UCMDB data. The discussions and scenario-based exercises reinforce skills to optimize business outcomes through the efficient use of the UCMDB Server and UCMDB Browser.

The hands-on lab environment uses UCMDB version 10.32

Upon successful completion of this course, you should be able to:

  • Define Universal Configuration Management Database (UCMDB) and the concepts of Configuration Items (CIs) and CI Types (CITs)
  • Identify the architecture, integrations, and system-level components of UCMDB • Identify various enterprise deployment scenarios and configuration approaches
  • Design and build business service views and topology maps to solve business problems
  • Create perspective-based views and models using Modeling Studio
  • Define the concepts of Impact Analysis and be able to model cause and impact with Impact rules
  • Enhance and auto-populate UCMDB through the use of Enrichments
  • Use out-of-the-box (OOTB) and on-the-fly reports and comparison options to track infrastructure changes
  • Identify the security and hardening concepts of UCMDB
  • Define federation and identify its implementation

Audience/Job Roles

This course is recommended for application or system support personnel or anyone who needs an overview of the capabilities of UCMDB 10.x.
