Basic Concepts

The CMDB is a set of one or more connected databases and information sources that provide a logical model of the IT infrastructure. It captures Configuration Items (CIs) and the relationships that exist between them.
The Definitive Media Library (DML) is defined as one or more locations in which the definitive and approved versions of all software CIs are securely stores.

Service TransitionProcesses Service Asset and Release and

To ensure that standardized methods and procedures are used for controlled, efficient and prompt handling of all Changes, in order to minimize the impact of Change-related Incidents upon service quality, and consequently to improve the day-to-day operations of the organization. Change Management acts as the greatest contributor to the CMDB, as Changes to CMDB must be assessed and authorized by Change Management first.

Configuration Management Change Management Deployment Management The CM process should be designed and planned in conjunction with Release and Deployment and Service Asset Configuration Management (SACM) process. This helps service provider evaluate the impact of change on current and planned services and release.

Basic Concepts

Request for Change (RFC):It is a formal communication seeking an alteration to one or more configuration items.
Change Models : Defines how various categories of changes are assessed & authorized, with different mechanisms and activities used to process and deliver changes based on the change type. Service Change: A service change is a change to an existing service or the introduction of the new service.

Knowledge Management

Service Transition- Processes Service Asset and Release and


Configuration Management Change Management Deployment Management Changes are categorized into: Normal Change A change that follows all of the steps of the change process. It is assessed by either a Change Manager or Change Advisory Board.

Basic Concepts

Standard Change

Emergency Change
A change that must be introduced as soon as possible e.g. to resolve a major incident or implement a security patch. The change management process will normally have a specific procedure for handling Emergency Changes.

A pre-approved Change that is low risk, relatively common and follows a procedure or work instruction

Knowledge Management

Service Transition- Processes Service Asset and Release and


Configuration Management Change Management Deployment Management The 7Rs of Change Management:

Basic Concepts

When assessing Changes, it is important to have answers to the following seven questions:

Who RAISED the change? What is the REASON for the change? What is the RETURN required from the change? What are the RISKS involved in the change? What RESOURCES are required to deliver the change? Who is RESPONSIBLE for the build, test and implementation of the change? What is the RELATIONSHIP between this change and other changes?

Authorized Changes: Basic Concepts Scope Process Activities Roles Should be passed to the appropriate technical group. CM is responsible for ensuring that changes are implemented as scheduled. Should include back out and recovery procedures (along with documented authorities to invoke) for each authorize change, so that if error occurs during or after implementation, these procedures can be quickly activated with minimum impact on service quality.

Change is reviewed: On completion of change, results should be reported for evaluation. For major changes, there will be more customers and shareholders. To include any Incidents arising as a result of the change.
