A normalized hardware model (Dell Inc. Precision 5000 Series 5540) is defined and a list of CIs created with this model. Discovery = ServiceNow finds an existing CI defined to this model and creates another normalized hardware model with the same name and moves this CI to this new model. Now there is a new duplicate normalized hardware model name with 1 CI.
Manufacturer Name Model Number
Existing Model Dell Technologies Precision Mobile Workstation 5540
New Model Dell Inc. Precision 5540
Of course both models Normalize to the same name.
This a real issue! How can models be managed if Discovery keeps creating new ones? How can this be prevented? The understanding is with ServiceNow HAM and Content Service that all identical CIs would be created with only one model.

I am having similar issue with Intune connector. There is already a normalized model but yet it creates a new model that is not normalized and assigns CIs to it. Crazy.
