Configuration Management
Part identification
Configuration Management is really a misrepresentation of the term
Configuration item (CI). So how do we identify Configuration Items and
what are they?
Part identification
Configuration Management - Configuration
Identification
Configuration identification
is the selection, identification and labeling of the configuration
structures and CIs, including their respective 'owner' and the
relationships between them. Configuration identification includes
allocating identifiers for CIs, including individual versions of the CI
and their configuration documents.

Configuration Management - Configuration
Items
CIs may be hardware,
software or documentation. Examples include services, servers,
environments, equipment, network components, desktops, mobile units,
applications, licenses, telecommunication services, and facilities.
Other records and data
associated with a CI include Incidents, Known Errors and Problems, and
corporate data about employees, suppliers, locations, business units, and
procedures.
Part identification
Configuration Management - Level
An important part of
Configuration Management is deciding the level at which control is to be
exercised, with top-level CIs broken down into components which are
themselves CIs, and so on.
