InServiceNow, theCompliancedimension of the CMDB Health Dashboard is driven byData Certification. To surface meaningful compliance results-such as identifying servers that arenot on the latest patch-the platform requires a combination ofCertification Policies,Data Filters, andScheduled Jobs.
Certification Policiesdefinewhatdata must be validated andwhich attributesare subject to compliance checks (for example, patch level, OS version, or last update date).Data Filtersscope the population-such as server classes only-ensuring the compliance evaluation targets the correct CIs.Scheduled Jobsautomate when certifications run, keeping compliance scores current and reflective of the latest state.
Options A and C are incorrect becauseauditsandstale/orphan/duplicatechecks relate to other health dimensions (correctness and completeness), not compliance. Option B focuses on service modeling and group alignment, which does not directly drive compliance scoring for patch currency.
Therefore, configuringCertification Policies, Data Filters, and Scheduled Jobsis required to accurately measure and display patch compliance on the CMDB Health Dashboard.
