  • Use CI classes to identify which CIs Service Mapping includes in application services during tag-based discovery. By default, this list appears empty and includes all CIs belonging to all CI classes. Define CI classes and allow only CIs belonging to these classes or their extensions to participate in tag-based discovery.
