Explanation

Multisource CMDB is a ServiceNow CMDB feature that tracks CI attribute values reported by each individual discovery or import source independently. Rather than overwriting a CI attribute with the latest value, it preserves the full history of what each source reported and when. This gives organizations a complete audit trail across all sources. The CMDB CI Class Models store app provides metadata management, the Mainframe plugin adds mainframe CI support, and populating a CMDB group is an organizational action - none of these address multi-source attribute history.
