Managing status of a complex system

Overview

Every complex system has a status. When you create a complex system item, you assign a status inside the edit form. However, if you want to set another status for an existing complex system, you must use the Change Status action. A wizard will guide you through the required steps where you can also change the status of all assets, software products and services that are assigned to the complex system.

Steps

  1. Go to the Complex Systems navigation item in the Assets application.
  2. Select the complex system items where you want to change the status.
  3. Click the Change Status action.
  4. Select the new status.
  5. Select the Change status of all related assets checkbox and choose a value if you want to change the status of related assets.
  6. Select the Change status of related software checkbox and choose a value if you want to change the status of related software products.
  7. Select the Change status of related services checkbox and choose a value if you want to change the status of related services.
  8. Apply your changes.

Implications

  1. System sets a new status for the selected complex systems.

  3. System sets a new status for all services assigned to the selected complex systems (if checkbox was selected).
