with alfresco-4.2.c,  java 1.7.0_07,  Tomcat 7.0.30,  PostgreSQL 9.0.4
 

Cmdbuild allows you to define the CMDB model from scratch. 

After you decide to install a new instance from an empty database (it is requested during the initial configuration), the system will be "empty".

Then, you should go into the Administration Module and model each item ("classes") you need: various assets, people, services, buildings / floors / rooms, suppliers, etc

Then you can model the relationships between the classes ("domains").

Please, take into consideration that you can define some "superclasses" and then acquire "subclasses" that specialize them.

For example:

    asset => asset hardware

                        => printer

                        => monitor

                        => computer

                                    => client

                                    => server

    asset => asset software

                        => system software

                                    => operating system

                                    => database

                        => application software

                                    => ERP

 

These topics are explained in the Oveview Manual and in the Administrator Manual.

 

In the CMDBuild release you can also find a demo database that you can use in order to learn how to configure classes, attributes, domains, etc. (you have just to see in the Administration Module how the various items were configured).
