Monitoring events vs configuration records

Built from your Lesson 3 result: 7/8, with the miss on monitoring and event management.

Your Lesson 3 miss

You selected service configuration management for a question whose clue was systematically observes services/components and records selected changes of state. The correct route was monitoring and event management.

The router

state changed = event observe/threshold/alert = monitoring CI records/relationships = configuration

Do not route every “component” question to configuration. If the component is being watched and its state changes, the exam wants monitoring and event management.
