Three of the 130 questions in this pack

Question 1

When creating an alert management rule, where would you specify a workflow to resolve a given condition?

  1. From the Remediation tab
  2. From the Actions tab
  3. From the Launcher tab
  4. In the Related Links section
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. From the Actions tab

The Actions tab in alert management rules is where you specify workflows and remediation actions to resolve conditions. This tab allows you to configure automated responses and workflow executions when alert criteria are met.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. The Remediation tab does not exist as a primary configuration location for workflows in alert management rules.
  • C. The Launcher tab is not used for specifying workflows in alert management rule configuration.
  • D. Related Links section is for linking related items, not for configuring remediation workflows.

Question 2

What types of system can a MID Server install on? (Choose two.)

  1. OpenVMS System
  2. Microsoft Windows Server
  3. Linux System
  4. Microsoft Windows Desktop
  5. Any system inside the customer firewall
  6. Mac OS X System
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B, C

B. Microsoft Windows Server C. Linux System A MID Server can be installed on Microsoft Windows Server and Linux systems. These are the two supported operating systems for MID Server deployment, allowing the server to communicate between ServiceNow and monitoring sources.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. OpenVMS is not a supported operating system for MID Server installation.
  • D. Microsoft Windows Desktop is not a supported platform; only Windows Server is supported.
  • E. While location matters, this is not a system type that determines MID Server compatibility.
  • F. Mac OS X is not a supported operating system for MID Server installation.

Question 3

What would be the primary use case for creating Javascripts in Event Management?

  1. To create a customized pull connector to retrieve events on behalf of an event source
  2. To automatically populate the Configuration Management Database (CMDB)
  3. To parse a nodename out of your raw event data in an event rule
  4. To run as part of a remediation workflow for IT alerts that fail to execute
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. To parse a nodename out of your raw event data in an event rule

event rule Javascripts in Event Management are primarily used to parse and extract data from raw event fields, such as extracting a nodename from raw event data within event rules. This allows for data transformation and normalization of incoming events.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Creating pull connectors requires specific connector development, not general Javascripts in Event Management.
  • B. Populating the CMDB is handled through CMDB reconciliation rules, not Event Management Javascripts.
  • D. Remediation workflows run through the Actions/Remediation framework, not as Javascripts in Event Management.

What makes the CIS-EM hard

CIS-EM is the shortest exam in the ServiceNow implementation specialist family, 30 questions in 60 minutes, which makes it less forgiving rather than easier: each question is worth more than three percent, and the blueprint concentrates 57% of the marks in two domains. It is the ITOM exam for turning raw monitoring events into alerts and incidents, currently written against the Zurich release, and it assumes Discovery and MID Server knowledge from the start.

Alerts and Tasks carries 30%: alert records and their lifecycle, the scheduled jobs that process them, alert management rules, priority scores, incident creation, correlation rules, aggregation and the Service Operations Workspace. Event Configuration and Use follows at 27%: event processing, event rules, filters and thresholds, message keys and configuration item binding, connectors, and the scripting side with regular expressions, JavaScript and PowerShell for parsing and transforming events.

Event Sources (16%) covers identifying sources, push versus pull collection, inbound actions, monitoring connectors and Agent Client Collector monitoring. Architecture and Discovery and Metric Intelligence each carry 10%, and Event Management Overview closes the blueprint at 7%. Knowing which table an event lands in, and the order the rules run in, decides several questions.
