Process Cloud Hierarchy

The Process Cloud Hierarchy action builds and updates the hierarchical view of cloud resources for selected Configuration Items (CIs). This process maps cloud assets to their parent-child relationships, service dependencies, and resource group structures, providing a visual representation of cloud infrastructure within the CMDB.

To run the Process Cloud Hierarchy job, scanned discovery data or AWS imported data must be available in the CMDB. Without this data, the cloud hierarchy cannot be generated accurately.

  1. Open the CMDB module in Virima.

  2. Select the CIs (cloud-related assets) for hierarchy mapping.

  3. Click the Select Actions dropdown at the top-right of the CMDB list.

  4. Choose Process Cloud Hierarchy from the dropdown.

  1. The system retrieves cloud metadata and relationship details for the selected CIs.

  2. It maps them into a hierarchical structure (e.g., accounts → resource groups → services → instances).

  3. The processed hierarchy updates in the CMDB.

  4. Review the structure in the Cloud Hierarchy view or other relevant visualization modules.

  5. Track progress via the Sync Logs page if processing runs in the background.
