Correct Answer is B. Use the CMDBTransformUtil API in the transform script

When importing data into the CMDB via import sets and transform maps, simply enabling a system property is not always sufficient or reliable in practice. To properly prevent duplicate CI creation, you should explicitly invoke the Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE) using the CMDBTransformUtil API inside the transform script.
