[SandeepKSingh]

Based on the following images, which choice best describes what occurs if Discovery sets the name attribute of a discovered Windows Server CI to 'Windows1' and then Altiris discovery runs detecting 'Windows2' for the name attribute on the same CI?

• A. The name of the CI stays 'Windows1'.
• B. The name of the CI changes to 'Windows2'.
• C. The name of the CI does not populate with either discovery.
• D. The CI is not discovered because Discovery is not listed in either image.

Hi @SandeepKSingh ,

A. The name of the CI stays 'Windows1' - Because of lower order data precedence CI name would stay 'Windows1'.

If Altiris Data source precedence is lower than 100 in that case correct answer world be -

B. The name of the CI changes to 'Windows2'.
