Adding state transitions

When you define a lifecycle state, you must indicate the other states to which a CI can move from the current state.

About this task

You can also add or modify transitions at any later time.

To add a state transition, follow these steps:

Procedure

  1. Click GoTo > IT infrastructure > Configuration items > CI Lifecycles from the drop down menu.
  2. Click the twistie to activate the state for which you want to set a transition. You will see a new table called Transitions from (Name) State, where (Name) is the name of the state whose twistie you clicked.

  4. Click the check boxes of all the states to which you want a CI to be able to move from the current state.
  5. Click Save.
  6. Click the Save icon to save the update to the lifecycle.
