Design

All-inclusive registration

a) User right clicks a federating CMDB from the left panel > selects "Register Configuration Items" b) A dialog appears with all the registered MDRs c) User selects one or more MDRs and clicks register d) A view opens to display the status of the registration request. The view will indicate the items/relationships that have been accepted or rejected.

Partial registration

a) User performs a CMDBf query on an MDR b) The items will be displayed in the tabular view that will be implemented as part of the following enhancement: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=214145 c) User will be able to select a subset of the items/relationships and drag and drop them on a federating CMDB. d) Alternatively, the user will be able to drag and drop the CMDBf query result tree item that appears in the left panel on a federating CMDB. This action will register all items/relationships of the query
