CIS-Discovery Exam Dumps - Certified Implementation Specialist - Discovery

The Automation Error Messages list displays the errors that occurred during the execution of Discovery automation scripts. From this list, you can view the details of each error, such as the script name, the error message, the device, and the time. You can also perform actions on the errors, such as retrying the script, ignoring the error, or creating an incident. To do so, you can use the options on the right navigation pane, which are categorized as follows1:

SELECT ALL: This option allows you to select all the errors in the list.

SELECT ONE: This option allows you to select one error in the list by clicking on the checkbox next to it.

ACTION ON SELECTED: This option allows you to perform an action on the selected errors, such as Retry, Ignore, or Create Incident. You can also choose to perform the action on all the errors in the list by selecting the All option from the drop-down menu.

ACTION ON ALL: This option allows you to perform an action on all the errors in the list, regardless of the selection. You can choose from the same actions as the ACTION ON SELECTED option.

The image provided shows a ServiceNow expression used to concatenate two pieces of information. The$name_details[1]suggests that 'name_details' is an array or a list variable, and we're accessing the second element (considering indexing starts at 0). This indicates that 'name_details' is not a tabular variable but rather a list or an array, and there is a scalar value labeled '1' which is being used to index this array. The 'exec_info' and 'executableDir' are likely attributes or properties of the objects within the 'name_details' array and '$process' object, respectively. There is no indication that this is from a WMI query operation step, nor is there any inherent reason why this value could not be used in a pattern step. ServiceNow Discovery patterns can use such expressions to extract and concatenate data during the discovery process.

The SNMP Query operation on a pattern for a custom device query allows Discovery to retrieve information from the target device using the SNMP protocol. It is best practice to use the published manufacturer’s device MIB, which is the official and standard definition of the device’s SNMP data. Using the manufacturer’s device MIB ensures that the query is accurate, consistent, and compatible with the device. Modifying the default MIB information, enabling SSH as a secondary protocol, or using live devices in production are not recommended practices, as they may introduce errors, security risks, or performance issues123.

CMDB Health measures the quality of the data in the CMDB by testing it against predefined rules and metrics. One of the categories of these rules is Correctness, which tests the data against data integrity rules such as identification rules, orphan CI rules, and stale CI rules1. These rules help identify and flag the existing CMDB relationships that are not compliant with the suggested relationships2.

Duplicate relationships are those that have more than one relationship of the same type between the same two CIs3. For example, if a server CI has two relationships of type “Depends on” with the same network CI, it is a duplicate relationship.

Stale relationships are those that have not been updated for a specified period of time3. For example, if a server CI has a relationship of type “Runs on” with a virtual machine CI that has not been discovered for more than 60 days, it is a stale relationship.

Orphan relationships are those that are missing a defined relationship within the CMDB3. For example, if a server CI has no relationship of type “Depends on” with any network CI, it is an orphan relationship.

The vCenter Event Collector is a MID Server extension that listens for vCenter-related events and updates the CMDB accordingly. The event collector allowsthe CMDB to be updated with changes to virtual machines (VMs), in addition to the updates detected by Discovery1.
