Thanks all for your response.

When  I am checking under probe in service now for Windows powershell.Its is showing me used by discovery is 'False'.Can i confirm from here we are not using powershell.

if yes ,Then not using windows powershell,how will it affect discovery .Should we have windows powershell.please confirm.

TThanks.

Powershell will provide further details and information on your Configuration Items than pure WMI. This is also the overall direction that System Administration and ServiceNow Discovery is moving. 

I believe that PowerShell is slated to be a full replacement for WMI at some point in Discovery functions. I would prepare your Discovery configuration accordingly.
