[All CIS-Discovery Questions]

Which choice will populate the Location field for a discovered CI?

ALocation field for a Discovery Schedule

BLocation field for a parent CI Type

CLocation field for a Port Probe

DLocation report from the Discovery Dashboard

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

The Location field for a discovered CI is populated by the Location field of the Discovery Schedule that triggered the discovery of that CI. This is done by the DiscoverySensor script, which gets the location ID from the Discovery Schedule and passes it to the Shazzam probe, which then updates the cidata with the location information. The Location field for a parent CI Type, a Port Probe, or a Discovery Dashboard report does not affect the Location field for a discovered CI.

C) Location field for a Port Probe? Seriously? That's about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

I'm not sure, but I think D) Location report from the Discovery Dashboard could also be a valid choice as it consolidates all the discovered information.
