Question 16

A Configuration Manager has configured a multiple data sources which are all authorized to update the same class and the same set of class attributes in the CMDB. What can the Configuration Manager do to control which data source should be authoritative source of truth for a specific class of set of class attributes?

  1. Assign a priority to each data source in the reconciliation rules
  2. Manually run the data source updates in the correct order
  3. Configure data refresh rules with a specific time period
  4. Assign a run order to each data source in the identification rules

Question 17

Which CMDB 360/Multisource CMDB the Dynamic Reconciliation Rules will also be enabled. Based on the request of the management, a CMDB Administrator has to set up multiple Dynamic Reconciliation Rules. Which are available ‘Dynamic Rule Types’ within the ‘Create Reconciliation Rule’ wizard? (Choose two.)

  1. Last Updated
  2. Smallest Value
  3. Last Created
  4. Most Reported

Question 18

The following identification rule for a CI class has been defined: Two new CI records are imported into the hardware class of the CMDB: CI1: The name of this CI record matches the name of an existing CI record in the CMDB. CI2: The IP address of this CI record matches the IP address of an existing CI record in the CMDB. Which is correct based on the identification rule and the imported CI records?

  1. CI1 will be inserted as new record and CI2 will be updated with matching record.
  2. CI1 will be updated with matching record and CI2 will be inserted as new record.
  3. CI1 and CI2 both will be updated with matching records.
  4. CI1 and CI2 both will be inserted as new records.

Question 19

A customer wants recently imported server records to be automatically reclassified into more specific CMDB classes after being discovered using ServiceNow Discovery. During the discovery process, if existing Server [cmdb_ci_server] records are reclassified into the Linux [cmdb_ci_linux_server] and Windows Server [cmdb_ci_win_server] classes, which reclassification operation occurred?

  1. Class Upgrade
  2. Class Downgrade
  3. Class Switch

Question 20

A Platform Data Owner wants to improve data quality with a few reconciliation rules across the five discovery sources that are being used. The Data Owner knows the best option is to include CMDB 360/Multisource CMDB to manage and monitor discovery sources, but the company currently does not have a license for ITOM Discovery that is required for CMDB 360/Multisource CMDB. What can the Data Owner do in this case?

  1. ITOM Discovery needs to be purchased to take advantage of the multisource IRE Rules.
  2. CMBD 360/Multisource is a platform product that can be used immediately.
  3. The IRE reconciliation rules can use discovery source regardless of CMDB 360 being enabled.
