Question 5

While reviewing the CMDB Dashboard, an administrator notices a high number of duplicate CIs flagged under the Correctness score. What mechanism should be reviewed and tuned to prevent these duplicate records from being continuously created by incoming integrations?

Accepted Answer

Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE) identification rules. Duplicate CIs are typically caused by misconfigured IRE (Identification and Reconciliation Engine) identification rules or payload processing failures.

Answer

Data Certification filter criteria

Answer

CI class manager inheritance settings

Answer

Dependency Views layout engines

Question 6

An analyst is examining a map in Service Mapping and needs to understand why a specific process on a host was not included in the map. Which map indicator or feature should they inspect?

Accepted Answer

Discovery Log / Mapping Log for the specific CI node. Service Mapping provides search logs and Discovery Log entries associated with each node to explain why mapping steps or processes were skipped or failed.

Answer

CMDB Baseline Diff Viewer

Answer

CMDB Health Dashboard Correctness score

Answer

Dependency Views relationship type filter

Question 7

Which TWO of the following dashboards help an organization monitor CSDM adoption and data alignment? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard. The CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard and Service Portfolio Management / CSDM workspaces provide visibility into CSDM alignment.

Answer

Discovery Administration Dashboard

Answer

CMDB Health Dashboard

Answer

Instance Security Center

Question 8

A platform administrator is configuring CMDB Health dashboards to track completeness, compliance, and correctness of CI records. Which metric is evaluated specifically under the Correctness KPI score?

Accepted Answer

Orphan CIs. Correctness in CMDB Health assesses data integrity metrics such as orphan CIs, stale CIs, and duplicate CIs. Audit results and discovered last status are core pillars of Correctness.

Answer

Empty mandatory fields

Answer

Unassigned owner fields

Answer

Unauthorized software installations

Question 9

What is the primary purpose of the CMDB Query Builder when generating insights?

Accepted Answer

To visually build and execute complex multi-class CI relationship queries and export results.. CMDB Query Builder allows users to construct visual, multi-class queries to find specific CI relationships and subsets across the CMDB.

Answer

To configure CI class identification and reconciliation rules.

Answer

To manage CSDM lifecycle policies and archival rules.

Answer

To execute automated discovery scans across IP networks.

Question 10

Which THREE of the following features are supported when configuring and working with CMDB Query Builder? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Saving queries for reuse in operational reporting and data exports. CMDB Query Builder supports multi-class queries, saving query definitions, and exporting resulting datasets.

Answer

Automated merging of duplicate hardware records

Answer

Real-time execution of Service Mapping patterns on demand

Question 11

An administrator is troubleshooting a Service Mapping map where a load balancer is mapped correctly, but the backend web servers are missing from the topology. Upon checking the traffic connections, the traffic is visible, but the map traversal stopped. What is the most common reason for this behavior in Service Mapping?

Accepted Answer

The discovery pattern lacks the specific extension or credentials to traverse from the load balancer to the backend nodes.. Service Mapping requires discovery credentials and patterns to traverse from load balancers to backend nodes; if credentials fail or patterns aren't assigned, mapping stops.

Answer

The CMDB Query Builder cache expired during the scan.

Answer

The cmdb_rel_ci table has exceeded maximum indexing thresholds.

Answer

The CMDB Health Correctness rule flagged the load balancer as a duplicate.

Question 12

When configuring custom indicators in Dependency Views, an organization wants to display a warning badge on any server CI whose CPU utilization exceeds 90% based on recent Performance Analytics or metric data. Where are custom widget indicators and map decorators configured for Dependency Views?

Accepted Answer

Dependency View Indicators configuration. Dependency Views map indicators and status badges are configured via Dependency View Indicators [sys_dependency_indicator] or custom formatters.

Answer

CMDB Data Manager policy conditions

Answer

Service Mapping pattern extension script

Answer

CI Class Manager identifier rules

Question 13

Which TWO of the following indicators or statuses can be viewed on a Service Mapping map? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Traffic connections showing active network communication flows between nodes. Service Mapping maps display statuses such as Operational/Successful, Partial, and Error/Failed, as well as traffic connections.

Answer

CMDB Data Manager archival policy execution logs

Answer

Individual user session password expiration alerts

Answer

Financial asset depreciation schedules and contract end dates

Question 14

Which THREE of the following actions help ensure accurate relationship-based insights in the CMDB? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Configuring proper IRE identification rules for relationships to prevent duplicate links. Accurate relationship insights rely on robust IRE rules for discovery, valid relationship types, and regular health auditing for orphans and duplicates.

Answer

Disabling all manual relationship creation across the entire instance

Answer

Setting CMDB Query Builder cache timeouts to zero

Question 15

An enterprise has multiple child domains. An administrator needs to generate a CMDB Query Builder report that aggregates CIs across all domains while respecting domain separation rules. How does Query Builder handle domain separation?

Accepted Answer

Query Builder automatically evaluates records based on standard domain separation runtime rules and user session visibility.. CMDB Query Builder respects domain separation rules based on the user's active session domain and domain path settings when querying and returning results.

Answer

Query Builder requires manual SQL joins on the sys_domain table for every query.

Answer

Domain separation is ignored by Query Builder; all queries execute globally against root domain data only.

Answer

Queries fail immediately if domain separation is enabled on the cmdb_ci table.
