ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – Discovery — Question 87

The deletion strategy is set to ‘Mark as absent’ for related Disk CIs discovered via the Linux Server pattern. If a related Disk CI is discovered during the Linux Server discovery and then the same related Disk CI is not found the next time the Linux Server is discovered, the following will happen:

Answer options

• A. The Disk Status CI (install_status) is set to Absent.
• B. The Disk CI Operational Status (operational_status) is set to Non-Operational.
• C. The Linux Server CI Operational Status (operational_status) is set to Non-Operational.
• D. The Linux Server CI Status (install_status) is set to Absent.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the deletion strategy specifically designates that if a related Disk CI is not found in the subsequent discovery, its status will be marked as Absent. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they pertain to the operational or install statuses of Disk CIs and the Linux Server CI, which are not affected in this scenario.
