10 Service Lifecycle Management The delivery of ITSM starts with a clear definition of the portfolio of services that IT manages; both customer-facing business services and technical services that IT uses to drive the business. Each of these services goes through a lifecycle, with most going through many iterations of continuous improvement as the business evolves and IT matures. a hierarchical Service Request Catalog that users can browse or search to locate services of interest, and order them using a familiar shopping cart function. service bundles (e.g. New Employee) that may initiate multiple Requests in parallel. configurable forms to enable the collection of relevant information for each type of Request. The Service Catalog provides a means for IT to communicate the value to the business of IT Services. It contains understandable information for the business on the nature of the services provided and what they can expect from them. This includes, but is not limited to: Service Level Agreements, Support Arrangements and Availability, Costing and Provisioning Details. Organization-wide understanding of services delivered Publicized information on the scope, availability and dependencies of services Reduction in Service Desk workload through self-service modeling of services across the entire service lifecycle (i.e. Pipeline, Live and Retired Services). relationship and dependency mappings with other Services and Configuration Items to monitor dependencies. clear visibility of the details and cost of each service. Shopping for IT services has never been easier As part of your Service Lifecycle Management, publish your services in a catalog which can be accessed by users. 10
11 Configuration Management All ITSM processes touch against Configuration Management. Understanding and documenting your technical resources and their inter-relationships is crucial to providing stable IT services. When following Change or Release Management Processes you need to have a clear understanding of the potential impacts that changes can have before they are made. vfire maintains information about each Configuration Item (CI) and its relationship with other CIs and services within the Configuration Management Database (CMDB). a graphical representation of relationships and dependencies between IT services and assets within an enterprise. the ability to specify who can view and update CMDB items and change periods when updates are allowed. version control of a CI throughout its lifecycle and the ability to roll-back to a prior version if necessary. Easier financial planning through clear identification of all hardware and software Improved release management due to the visibility of software changes Guaranteed compliance with legal and contractual obligations quick identification of the potential cause of issues through automated root cause analysis. the ability to simulate outage scenarios to identify single points of failure as well as the assets and stakeholders that will be impacted by an outage. control of CMDB updates through the Change and Release Management processes. CMDB linking diagram vfire Officer allows users to view a graphical representation of relationships between CIs within the CMDB. 11
12 Federated CMDB Event Management Federated Configuration Management Database (CMDB) populates your CMDB through automated discovery from third party tools. The information held in existing third party asset discovery and management tools is consolidated to provide a comprehensive view of all infrastructure components (including applications, servers, networks, and storage), and the dependencies between them. snap-in connector architecture with out-ofthe-box connectors for both VMware and third party technologies. federation of resources and linkages from existing data stores, without the need to replicate all data. reconciliation of resources (i.e. matching and removal of duplicates) discovered from multiple sources. automated and regulated application of updates. Event Management allows organizations to consolidate their third party monitoring tools into vfire. Through the configuration of business and technical rules, third party alerts can be recorded as a meaningful action for your IT staff. automatic creation of Incidents or Problems in response to operational events. event filtering based on any available attributes. map attributes. automatic creation of outages on impacted Configuration Items and Services. Reduced manual processing Proactive notification of IT Staff of potential Problems Reduced Service Desk load Informed first call response Reduced resolution time Improved financial planning through clear identification of all assets Enhanced Release Management due to visibility of software changes Guaranteed compliance with legal and contractual obligations Powerful integration platform Extract data from multiple data sources and apply rules for how that data gets mapped back into vfire. 12
13 Change & Release Management The aim of Change and Release management is to minimize disruption to your business. The processes ensure that standard steps are used for the planning, approval, execution and control of modifications to an operating environment and facilitate the introduction of software and hardware releases into managed IT environments. advanced automated workflow capabilities for clear definition of complex processes. visual representation of the various tasks required to complete a Request. flexibility to map any ITIL process with advanced workflow features. the ability to schedule regular, recurring Requests. visibility of a Forward Schedule of Change via the Customer Portal. timely Changes and Releases. Operational Level Agreements and Underpinning Contracts can be applied to tasks and approvals. full integration between Change, Release, Configuration and Problem Management processes. automated integration from workflow processes to keep your CMDB up to date.

Increased customer satisfaction by meeting service commitments using powerful Availability SLAs Enhanced reputation of the IT department within the business Optimized resources enabling IT to provide services when required planned and unplanned outages support. simulated outages to risk assess changes. a Cause Finder to find common infrastructure between affected services. support during contracted and un-contracted hours. sophisticated Availability SLAs and targets. highly visual Availability indicators throughout the application. the ability to automatically create outages through the vfire workflow builder. full outage tracking and Availability reporting. View outages within your CMDB Simulate outages to risk assess changes and pinpoint the root cause of multiple outages within your infrastructure. 14
15 Asset Management The purpose of Asset Management is to help identify, control, record, audit, verify and report assets across their lifecycle, from the point of acquisition through to their disposal. It maintains accurate information on the historical, current and planned state of assets and protects integrity by ensuring only authorised assets are used. Supporting Processes Cost control by highlighting the possibility of bulk purchases, implementing asset transfer and better adherence to compliance obligations Informed decision making, increasing the efficiency of vendor management, strategic planning and business continuity Effective Asset Management is critical to supporting processes.
