Location specifications used in Discovery

[Kota Kuroiwa]

Location can be set in the Discovery Schedule.
When Discovery is executed on a Discovery Schedule with Location set,
Location is set for newly registered and updated CIs.

Is it a specification of OOTB that Location is set to this CI?
Also, is the value of Location set to CI before the identification phase?

Thank you in advance.

Is it a specification of OOTB that Location is set to this CI? >> I didn't get this part clearly, but it is OOTB behavior to set the location of Primary (Hardware?) CIs based on the location set in the Discovery Schedule.

This done via script not in pattern. 

1) Discovery schedule location get updated on ci. Script include is responsible for this. 

2)IF you assigned a user to CI. User's location get updated on CI.
