I have a question in service mapping...

Given the CMDB class structure shown, which types of Configuration Items (CIs) will be included in a report run against the Server [cmdb_ci_server] table?

A. CIs defined directly in Server [cmdb_ci_server] table and all parent classes
B. CIs defined directly in Server [cmdb_ci_server] table and all child classes
C. CIs defined directly in the Server [cmdb_ci_server] table

Can you give me the correct answer and a detailed explanation?

In the CMDB class structure provided, there is a hierarchy of classes, where "cmdb_ci_server" is a child class of "cmdb_ci" and "cmdb_ci_computer," and "cmdb_ci" is a child class of "cmdb.

When you run a report against the "Server [cmdb_ci_server]" table, you are querying the specified table and all its child classes. Therefore, you will get information about CIs that are defined directly in the "Server" table (cmdb_ci_server) and all its child classes (cmdb_ci_computer, cmdb_ci_win_server, and xmdb_ci_linux_server).

So, option B is the correct answer: CIs defined directly in the Server [cmdb_ci_server] table and all child classes.
