The three types of detected conflicts

Three types of conflicts are detected: Change Window conflicts, configuration item (CI) conflicts, and Blackout Period conflicts.

Change Window conflicts

These conflicts occur when the schedule of an implementation task is not fully contained within the change windows that are defined for its target and impacted CIs.

CI conflicts

These conflicts occur when the schedule of an implementation task overlaps the schedule of another implementation task that is targeted or impacted by the CI that is the target of the first task.

Blackout Period conflicts

These conflicts occur when the schedule of an implementation task overlaps the blackout period that is defined for the target and impacted CI of the task.
