Question 226
An ITSM implementer faces this business situation: Repeated VPN failures are linked to one suspected shared infrastructure defect. Which design or handling approach MOST DIRECTLY addresses the requirement? Select ONE best answer.
- Attach incident SLA measurement to valid definitions and task conditions

Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Configure problem records to support assessment, root-cause work and resolution through a governed lifecycle is the strongest appropriate service management design for this specific original ITSM educational case: Repeated VPN failures are linked to one suspected shared infrastructure defect. The main technical reason is: Problem Management handles underlying causes and ongoing risk, not merely the immediate restoration of a single incident.
Incorrect Answers

- Document temporary workarounds with scope, limitations and rollback guidance
- Derive incident priority from configured impact and urgency rather than subjective severity labels
- Relate change requests to affected and impacted configuration items accurately
- Configure problem records to support assessment, root-cause work and resolution through a governed lifecycle
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:Configure problem records to support assessment, root-cause work and resolution through a governed lifecycle is the strongest appropriate service management design for this specific original ITSM educational case: An assigned problem waits for evaluation before detailed analysis. The main technical reason is: Problem Management handles underlying causes and ongoing risk, not merely the immediate restoration of a single incident. The applicable concrete response is: Use the configured problem assessment state and owner. Validate the case by checking: The record proceeds through permitted lifecycle steps.
