Infrastructure collocation

Infrastructure collocation is a rule that discovers component instances that are installed in the same infrastructure and that are related to a specific product in the software catalog. The search does not include the agent on which the product is installed. If any of the discovered component instances has a confirmed, one-to-one, or auto-bundled relationship with the product, the other instances are automatically bundled with the same product.

Example

The assignment of the Server 2 component to Product 4 is simple, auto-bundled, or manually confirmed. The database component is assigned to Product 1. Both components are in the same infrastructure.

Based on the software catalog data, the database component is automatically reassigned to Product 4.
