Add a service to SRM
Add services to Service Reliability Management (SRM) to help your teams manage service health.
Before you begin
If you’re adding atechnology management service to SRM, make sure it doesn’t have a support group. You assign the support group when you add the service to SRM.
Role required: srm_manager, srm_responder, or srm_admin
About this task
Add a service to SRM to assign it to your teams and let them access its incidents and alerts. You can either create a service or import an existing one. SRM supports both service instances and technology management services:
- Service instances - Business-facing services, such as an HR portal. Service instances often have multiple infrastructure components.
- Technology management services - IT-focused services that support a business service or service instance. For example, an authentication service or database service.
When you add a technology management service to SRM, you also add its offerings. Offerings are specific components within a parent technology management service. For example, Spam filtering is an offering within the Email technology management service. In SRM, you can assign a parent technology management service and its offerings to different teams.
Note: When you import an existingtechnology management service, itsofferings don’t inherit its support group. Offerings either keep their existing support group or, if they don’t have one, you must assign it before setting up Service Level Objectives (SLOs).
Procedure

You're taken to your SRM Home page.
Note: If you use other Service Operations Workspace (SOW) applications, you may see the SOW Home page instead of the SRM Home page. The SOW Home page includes SRM alerts and incidents in its metrics.

If approvals aren't enabled, your service appears in the service list. If approvals are enabled, your request is sent for approval. After it's approved, the service appears in the services list.
Note: If you added atechnology management service, itsofferings appear in the Offerings tab on the parenttechnology management service's page. Offerings also appear in the services list. To viewan offering without an assigned support group, remove all filters from the services list.
What to do next
Ifan offering doesn't have a support group, assign it to a support group before setting up SLOs. For how to assign support groups, see Edit service details in SRM.
You can also add integrations to your service to start monitoring its health.
