I have a question regarding Discovery Maps in Software Asset Management (SAM).
As I understand it, Discovery Maps are used to link Software Discovery Models to Software Models. When a Software Entitlement is imported, if the PPN for that entitlement exists in the Content Service, the system automatically creates the corresponding Software Model and associates it with the relevant Discovery Map in the Software Model record.
However, I’m a bit confused about how the Discovery Map interacts with or relates to the Software Discovery Model. I haven’t been able to find a direct relationship or reference between these two record types. Initially, I assumed this connection might be established within the normalization scripts, but I couldn’t find any references to Discovery Map records (samp_sw_entitlement_definition) there.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks & Regards! 😊
