Why each option

A configuration baseline is a verified snapshot of infrastructure that captures the structure, contents, and relationships of configuration items at a specific point in time.

AConfiguration baselineCorrect

A configuration baseline documents the approved state of a set of configuration items (CIs) and their interrelationships as defined within ITIL service configuration management. It serves as a reference point for change control, audits, and recovery from incidents, ensuring teams can return to a known-good state when needed.

BProject baseline

A project baseline tracks project scope, schedule, and cost in project management disciplines and does not capture infrastructure configuration details or CI relationships.

CChange baseline

Change baseline is not a recognized ITIL term for documenting the structural and relational state of infrastructure components.

DAsset baseline

An asset baseline tracks individual assets for financial or inventory purposes and does not capture the relational structure and interdependencies between configuration items.
