Track critical tasks related to your OT network on the OT Action-Oriented Landing Page in the Industrial Workspace. This landing page provides a big-picture view of your site and business unit data, and it calls out important actions that the signed-in user must prioritize.
Compare your sites by their key metrics with the OT Progress Scorecard in the Industrial Workspace. To access the OT Progress Scorecard, you must have the OT Progress Scorecard viewer (ot_progress_scorecard_viewer) role.
Get redirected to different pages in Industrial Workspace depending on your assigned roles with the new homepage destination rules. This redirection helps you gain access to the data that you need.
Use the SyncIPAddressToOT scheduled job to update and synchronize the IP address information for all the available OT devices. The scheduled job acquires the IP address information from the IP address [cmdb_ci_ip_address] table and adds it to the IP address field of the Configuration Item (CI).
Track your OT device data with multi-site and business unit filtering by using the OT Devices tab that was added to the Industrial Workspace. This tab now runs in Performance Analytics.
Filter the data shown that is based on the specific business units and sites by using the business unit and site filters in the OT Devices tab.
Automatically convert IT hardware into OT devices by using the Bulk Update Ruleset for Reassigning IT to OT feature.

Utilize an enhanced OT user experience and make additional configurations with the following CMDB OT class model updates:
- Product Instance Identifier was added as an identifier for the OT Identification Rule. - The OT backup management model was added to help you store multiple backups against a configuration item. - Firmware Installation \[cmdb\_firmware\_install\], Key Value \[cmdb\_key\_value\], and Software Instance \[cmdb\_software\_instance\] tables were added as a related entry for OT classes. - The **ire\_criterion\_attribute** attribute was added to the OT Entity \[cmdb\_ot\_entity\] table to act as a criterion attribute for an OT entity-related entry. - Optional conditions to filter the records during identification and reconciliation were added to the OT identification rules. - The OT Class Mapping Template \[ot\_class\_mapping\_template\] table was introduced to capture class mappings used for Service Graph Connectors. - Required conditions were added under **Advanced Configuration** that must be met for lookup identification rules. - Industrial printer \(industrial\_printer\) was added as an OT device type. - The Quality Inspection Control System \[cmdb\_ci\_ot\_qics\] class represents the control systems that assist in quality and inspection functions. This new class is a child class of the OT Control System \[cmdb\_ci\_ot\_control\] class. - The Backup Storage Information \[cmdb\_backup\_storage\_information\] class helps manage backups of your OT device data. - The OT System Service \[cmdb\_ci\_ot\_system\_service\] class can model OT systems and their related software, hardware, and communication network components, such as a Distributed Control System \(DCS\). - You can now bulk-validate NIDS records from the list view instead of validating each NIDS record individually.
Use distributed Microsoft Excel spreadsheets to import OT devices for better manageability of your OT system and its devices. The POWER tool includes the following new features:
- Firmware Installation records can be created when a firmware version is available. - OT entity update issues can be resolved through the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Excel. - The new Industrial Core \[com.sn\_ot\_core\] plugin is required for class mapping when using the Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Excel. - Supports the import and classification of the Quality Inspection Control System \[cmdb\_ci\_ot\_qics\] class. If you manually create an OT device in the SG-OT Excel Staging Table, the Quality Inspection Control System class is an option in the **What is the type of OT device?** task. - Supports capturing the Backup Storage Information \[cmdb\_backup\_storage\_information\] class attributes on the staging table, staging table form, and the ETL. - Maps the **Status** field in a staging table record to the **Life Cycle Stage** and **Life Cycle Status** fields on a configuration item \(CI\) record. The **Status** field no longer maps to the **Install Status** field on a CI record. - Creates assets in the Industrial product model category for OT class devices. This enables compatibility with the Enterprise Asset Management product for full lifecycle management of OT class devices.

When you use CMDB groups to add OT context to IT CIs, you can no longer create an Automated IT OT Bulk Contextualization record with more than 1 CMDB group.
The Automated IT OT Bulk Contextualization - Using CMDB groups scheduled job can only process 10,000 CIs at one time. If you have more than 10,000 CIs, the remaining CIs will be processed in the next job run.
Several new granular admin roles enable developers to complete administrative configuration tasks without requiring the full admin role.
The Discovery for Operational Technology plugin has been renamed IT Discovery for OT Networks.
The following changes have been made to Operational Technology Manager roles:
- Users assigned the Operational Technology Manager Editor \[cmdb\_ot\_editor\] role or Operational Technology Manager Admin \[cmdb\_ot\_admin\] role cannot edit IT configuration items \(CIs\). Users with these roles can only edit or delete OT CIs.
- Users who aren't assigned an OT role cannot view OT records in the following CMDB tables:
- IP Address \[cmdb\_ci\_ip\_address\]
- Network Adapter \[cmdb\_ci\_network\_adapter\]
- Serial Number \[cmdb\_serial\_number\]
- The Operational Technology Editor \[cmdb\_ot\_editor\] role contains the cmdb\_manual\_ci\_ire\_access role to support manually creating an OT CI in the Industrial Workspace.
