Define vRealize® Subcategory Classification

If you are using CSM 8.1.0 or greater, use Table Management in the CSM Desktop Client to define the vRealize® SubCategory classification. When you define the classification, you select the VM Specifics Form so that the appropriate form displays when the classification is selected. You can also select a default Team and the option of using an Approval , if necessary.

Note: If you are using a version of CSM earlier than 8.1.0, use the Group Map Editor to point the Request VM SubCategory to the VM Specifics Form and VM Action Request SubCategory to the VM Action Specifics Form.

Note: This functionality is only available if you have applied the Orchestration Pack for VMWare vRealize® Automation™. For more information, refer to the mApp Solution Tech Notes documentation.
