    • The default value of the property sn_sec_cmn.update_on_ci_change is true. So, when the configuration item (CI) for a discovered item is updated, the test results are updated as well.

    Note:
    Starting with v14.9 of Configuration Compliance, the following terms have been renamed:
    Table 1. Changes in terminology
    Terminology prior to v14.9 Terminology v14.9 onwards
    Test Result Group Remediation Task
    Group Rules Remediation Task Rules
    Policy Test group

    The external ID for the test result is updated and the risk score, assignment rules, group rules, remediation target rule are reevaluated. If a test result exists with the same test and CI, the test results are updated with the existing test result and the current test result is closed with the substate invalidCI. Work notes are added accordingly.

    If you do not want to update the CI for the existing test result, set the property to false. In this case, if a CI changes, a new test result is created and the existing one is closed as an invalidCI.
