Update with changes from CMDB / Dynamic service recalculation halts when encountering relation with invalid type, throws NullPointerException - Known Error

Update with changes from CMDB / Dynamic service recalculation halts when encountering relation with invalid type, throws NullPointerException Description When there's a relation in cmdb_rel_ci with invalid relation type (broken reference, empty value etc.) - it breaks the Update with changes from CMDB / Dynamic service recalculation flow. This can result in an empty Dynamic Service after recalculation.

Expectation: This relation should be ignored with a warning.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a manual service, add CI. 2. Create a relation from the manual CI to another CI, with some dummy relation type. 3. Execute Update with changes from CMDB (BusinessServiceManager.populateDiscoveredService) from background script. You'll see that NullPointerException is thrown, and the process halts.

Workaround Remove the invalid relationship record from the cmdb_rel_ci.

Recalculate the Service.
