goto a list of sys_db_object, query on name, 'is one of', and put in the list, review the 'Extends table' value.

Hi @pranjalsrvs,
correct answer is d) CMDB
Because base table is OOTB table with no parents, and cmdb table is extended with cmdb_ci and others.
cmdb_rel_ci is abotu relationships and ecmdb with the "e" in the beginning doesn't exist.
Similarly, it's for [task[ table.
Refer to this:

Hi @pranjalsrvs ,
Correct answer is:- Base table for CMDB is cmdb but for CI Class Manager [CMDB Hierarchy - Base table is cmdb_ci]
- cmdb_ci:
This table represents the core Configuration Item (CI) and stores the basic attributes of all CIs within the CMDB.
- Other options:
- cmdb_rel_ci: This table stores relationships between CIs, referencing the cmdb_ci table to establish connections.
- ECMDB/Ecmdb_rel_ci/Ecmdb_ci: These terms are not typically considered as the base table of the CMDB hierarchy. ECMDB might refer to an extended CMDB or a specific implementation of it, and the other related tables likely deal with specific relationships within the extended CMDB.
Key point: The cmdb_ci table is the foundational table for all other CI-related data in the CMDB.
