Hi,
Problem statement- i have discovered virtual windows servers ,But the field "CI NAME" is being populated with the same value as the "MODEL NAME".I want to correct it so that the CI name is correct.
Also I want to know how field mapping is done in discovery(where all data is auto-populated ).
Thanks

Hi Prafull,
It's been a while, but if I recall...
Field mapping is done via the sensors. It processes the results of the probe and determines when to insert a new record or update an existing one.

FWIW, you're likely to get better responses in the IT Operations Management space.
