Following are some common examples of values, when you may see them, and what they mean. Value When you may see this value Meaning Alive, not active, not classified After Shazzam Device is responding, but it does not have any open (active) ports to run classification against. Active After Shazzam Device has open (active) ports that to potentially run classification against. Classified After Classification Probe Classified the device type and proceeding to the Identification stage Active, couldn’t classify After Classification Probe Unable to classify the device type. This value may include a reason why classification was not possible. For example: Active, couldn't classify: No WMI connection Created CI After Identification Probe/Pattern or after Discovery - Device Complete Business Rule is run (for new CI) New CI has been created based on identification results Identified CI After Identification Probe/Pattern Existing CI has been found based on identification results Identified, ignored extra IP After Identification Probe/Pattern Device has already been discovered via a different IP in same discovery status Updated CI After certain Exploration Probes/Patterns or after Discovery - Device Complete Business Rule is run (for existing CI) CI has been updated with additional information Following are some of the less common values you may see. Value When you may see this value Meaning Unclassified After Shazzam (only for credentialless discovery and the Discover value on the Discovery Schedule is set to IP Addresses) Credentialless discovery of the target IP fails to match to an existing CI on the instance. Classified After Shazzam (only for credentialless discovery and the Discover value on the Discovery Schedule is set to IP Addresses) Credentialless discovery of the target IP fails to match to an existing CI on the instance. Active, Windows Cluster VIP After Windows - Classify Device is a Windows Cluster VIP and will be updated as such. Classified, but disabled After Classification Probe Match exists to a classifier type, but the classifier itself is disabled Classified, couldn't identify After Identification Probe/Pattern Could not create or match to existing CI record Identified, not updating CI After Identification Probe/Pattern CI record is properly identified but the CI is not updated
