Cleansing and reconciliation tool parameters

The asset and CI cleansing and reconciliation tool is a cron task that is used to standardize the structure of integration identifiers. These integration identifiers are used to identify assets and CIs that exist in your Maximo® database. Parameters are used to determine how the tool functions.

Table 1. Asset and CI cleansing and reconciliation tool parameters
Parameter Value Description
Action load Cleanse naming attributes, then assign integration identifiers for any objects that do not currently have an integration identifier. Output includes summary results – objects processed, objects assigned integration identifiers, objects that did not satisfy the naming rules.
reload Cleanse naming attributes, then assign integration identifiers to all targeted records, regardless of whether they already have an assigned integration identifier. Output includes summary results – objects processed, objects assigned integration identifiers, objects whose integration identifiers were replaced, objects that did not satisfy the naming rules.

The reload action is specified when you want to cleanse and reconcile objects that were cleansed and reconciled previously. If you customize or change the naming attribute cleansing rules or the naming attribute mapping rules, you must cleanse and reconcile all affected objects again.

ObjectList all or a list of comma-separated values from ci, actci, deployedasset, or asset Optional. Specify the type of object that is to be processed by the specified Action parameter. Default value is all.
WhereClause SQL where clause Optional. Used to filter the set of target objects that are processed. If not specified, all objects of the types specified by ObjectList are processed. No default.

You use this parameter when you select one of actci, ci, asset, or deployedasset for the ObjectList parameter

TimeLimit The number of minutes for which the tool runs Optional. Used to limit the run time of the tool. For example, when processing many objects within a set maintenance window. Default value is no time limit.
