Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques that determine whether each configuration item in a plurality of configuration items is associated with every other configuration item therein. If each configuration item in the plurality of configuration items is associated with every other configuration item therein, the plurality of configuration items are merged such that each attribute associated therewith is associated with one configuration item. If each configuration item in the plurality of configuration items is not associated with every other configuration item therein, it is determined whether at least one configuration item may be ignored.
