Define a non-allowed operational transition
Define a restriction for CI Lifecycle Management in which a specified CI cannot transition from one operational state to another.
Before you begin
Role required: none
About this task
By default, CI Lifecycle Management has no restrictions for transitioning CIs from one operational state to another. You can restrict this behavior by defining transitions that are not allowed for a specified CI. For example, you can define a restriction on transitioning a Linux server from non-operational state to repair in progress state.
Procedure
Navigate to All > Configuration > CI Lifecycle Management > Not Allowed Operational Transitions.
On the Not Allowed Operational Transitions page, click New and fill out the form.
Field Description CI Type The CI type for which the restriction applies. Not Allowed Transition The CI state into which transitioning is restricted. Operational State The operational state that the CI must be in for the restriction to apply.
Result
If an API attempts to transition a CI that is in the specified operational state to a state that is not allowed, the operation fails and an error is logged.
