ServiceNow CIS-ITSM Practice Test 44
Question 430
During a ServiceNow IT service management review, the following issue is identified: An urgent change cannot wait for a normal maintenance slot. What is the MOST DEFENSIBLE ITSM approach for this situation? Select ONE answer.
- Publish and retire catalog items through documented ownership and version review
- Use order guides for a coordinated group of eligible catalog items
- Configure blackout windows and maintenance windows as distinct scheduling constraints
- Implement change approval rules tied to risk, state and appropriate authorizers
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Configure blackout windows and maintenance windows as distinct scheduling constraints is the strongest appropriate service management design for this specific original ITSM educational case: An urgent change cannot wait for a normal maintenance slot. The main technical reason is: Blackout periods restrict risky changes while maintenance windows define approved work opportunities.
Incorrect Answers
A:That option concerns Catalog item publishing and lifecycle ownership. Blackout periods restrict risky changes while maintenance windows define approved work opportunities.
B:That option concerns Order guides and multi-item requests. Blackout periods restrict risky changes while maintenance windows define approved work opportunities.
D:Implement change approval rules tied to risk, state and appropriate authorizers can be relevant to the different study topic "Change approval policy and state gates" in the Change Management domain, but it does not most directly satisfy the requested appropriate service management design for the exact situation: An urgent change cannot wait for a normal maintenance slot. the appropriate response for this situation is: Configure blackout windows and maintenance windows as distinct scheduling constraints.
