Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Dictionary Overrides on cmdb_rel_ci
Why it's wrong here
Dictionary Overrides control default values, mandatory status, and read-only states for fields on extended tables, not relationship rules.
- ✗
CI Class Manager > Relationship Tab
Why it's wrong here
Relationship rules are managed under Suggested Relationships rather than directly inside the CI Class Manager attribute settings.
- ✓
Suggested Relationships (Configuration > CI Relationships > Suggested Relationships)
Why this is correct
Suggested Relationships define valid class-to-class pairing rules for relationship types in Dependency Views.
- ✗
Discovery Schedule filters
Why it's wrong here
Discovery Schedules control when and what discovery probes run, not CMDB relationship rules.
