Issue

• On the cmdb_ci table, there is a field monitor which is of type True/False. The requirement is to use the field for custom requirements, so before using the field, we wanted to understand the business usage of the field.

Resolution

• The "Monitor" is added to track if CI is enabled for monitoring or not and thus could be useful for reporting. Also on checking with development, there is no other OOB functionality that might use this field.
• It is always recommended to create a new field in case some business requirement is to be achieved instead of changing the OOB fields.
