Train the similarity solution definition to find similar existing major cases
To enable finding related major cases in a cluster, you must first update and train the similarity solution definition.
Before you begin
Role required: admin
Activate the Predictive Intelligence for Customer Service Management plugin (com.snc.csm_ml).
About this task
By default, a similarity solution definition for finding similar existing major cases in a cluster is already available. A similarity solution definition collects and compares your existing records to new similar records.
You can modify the fields, filters, update frequency, and training frequency.
Procedure
-
Navigate to All > Predictive Intelligence > Similarity > Solution Definitions.
-
In the Similarity Definitions list, search for and select the Major Issue Detector solution definition (ml_sn_global_major_issue_detector).
-
On the Similarity Definition form, verify the default field values.
For more information about the Similarity Definition form fields, see Create and train a similarity solution.
-
Change the fields and filters, as required.
-
To change the frequency with which the model for similarity solution definition must be rebuilt, edit the Update Frequency field.
-
To change the frequency with which to include new records in the model for the similarity solution definition, edit the Training Frequency field.
-
In the Training Request Schedule related list, view the schedule for training the Major Issue Detector solution definition.
-
Click Update & Retrain.
-
Open the Major Issue Detector solution definition.
-
In the ML Solutions related list, view the training solution progress in the Progress column.
Note: Alternatively, you can click the link for the solution in the Active column. On the ML Solution form, click the Show training progress related link to check the training solution progress.

# Train the similarity solution definition to find similar existing major cases
To enable finding related major cases in a cluster, you must first update and train the similarity solution definition.
## Before you begin
Role required: admin
Activate the Predictive Intelligence for Customer Service Management plugin \(com.snc.csm\_ml\).
## About this task
By default, a similarity solution definition for finding similar existing major cases in a cluster is already available. A similarity solution definition collects and compares your existing records to new similar records.
You can modify the fields, filters, update frequency, and training frequency.
## Procedure
1. Navigate to **All** > **Predictive Intelligence** > **Similarity** > **Solution Definitions**.
2. In the Similarity Definitions list, search for and select the Major Issue Detector solution definition \(ml\_sn\_global\_major\_issue\_detector\).
3. On the Similarity Definition form, verify the default field values.
For more information about the Similarity Definition form fields, see [Create and train a similarity solution](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/intelligent-experiences/create-similarity-solution.md).
4. Change the fields and filters, as required.
5. To change the frequency with which the model for similarity solution definition must be rebuilt, edit the **Update Frequency** field.
6. To change the frequency with which to include new records in the model for the similarity solution definition, edit the **Training Frequency** field.
7. In the Training Request Schedule related list, view the schedule for training the Major Issue Detector solution definition.
8. Click **Update & Retrain**.
9. Open the Major Issue Detector solution definition.
10. In the ML Solutions related list, view the training solution progress in the **Progress** column.
**Note:** Alternatively, you can click the link for the solution in the **Active** column. On the ML Solution form, click the **Show training progress** related link to check the training solution progress.
