ServiceNow CIS-Discovery free question 10 / 10 · Domain 4: Discovery Engagement Readiness
What does Discovered Devices on the Discovery Home page count?
- CIs in tables that extend Application
- IP addresses that responded to scanning
- Virtual machines found in cloud accounts
- CIs in the tables that extend Hardware
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: D
Why this is correct
Discovered Devices counts the CIs in tables that extend the Hardware table, such as Computer.
Why the other options are wrong
"CIs in tables that extend Application" … Application CIs are not devices. The count is narrower: it covers tables that extend Hardware, such as Computer.
"Virtual machines found in cloud accounts" … Cloud resources are counted separately on the page.
"IP addresses that responded to scanning" … The count is of CIs, not of IP addresses.
Key point
A dashboard number means different things depending on which tables it counts. Check the definition before you report it.
