What things are tracked in customization's?

Customization's are tracked by update sets only for some objects, using one of the following methods:

The update_synch attribute on the table

Special handlers for changes that require updates to multiple tables

Manual unloading for homepages

Update sets cannot be used to trfer other system changes or data. In general, update sets capture configuration information but not task or process data. For example, update sets track service catalog item definitions and related configuration data like variables and variable choices. However, if you test the service catalog by placing orders, the orders (requests, items, catalog tasks) are not tracked by update sets.

Where are customization's stored?

Each update set is stored in the Update Set [sys_update_set] table, and the customization's that are associated with the update set (stored in the Customer Update [sys_update_XML] table) appear as a related list on the update set record.

KB articles are referred in which modules below?

Service Catalog, News, INC.

What changes out of below would be applied in case of a merge update set?

You can merge multiple update sets into one for easy trfer.

To merge update sets:

Navigate to System Update Sets > Merge Update Sets.

Use the slushbucket to select the update sets to merge.

Enter a name for the new update set. Updates are added to this set when the original sets are merged.

Click Merge selected.

The new update set is created and changes from the original sets are moved to the new set. Only changes that are not merged into the new set remain in the original sets.

If the same object is updated in both sets (for example, both update sets modify the Incident form), only the most recent change is moved to the merged update set. The other update remains in its original update set to provide a record of the changes that were not moved. You may want to validate that the correct changes were moved to the new set by viewing the update set.

After merging and validating, it is a good idea to delete or empty the original update sets to avoid applying an older change by mistake. The system does not remove the updates that were not merged into the new set.

The Platform Security Settings - High plugin is active by default on all new Service Now instances. For instances in which the high security settings are active, observe the following cautions:

Integrations into Service Now tables fail unless access control lists (ACL) are defined for the tables being accessed and the appropriate roles are assigned.

The same ACL requirements apply for import sets that apply to integrations.

The Platform Security Settings - High plugin automatically activates the Contextual Security plugin if it is not already active. In addition, the Platform Security Settings - High plugin delivers the following settings and features in the context of increasing the security of your Service Now platform.

Features:

High Security Settings: Default property values to harden security on your platform by centralizing all critical security settings to one location for management and auditing.

Default Deny Property: A new security manager property controls the default security behaviour for table access.

Security Administrator Role: A new role used to prevent modification of key security settings and resources. The Security Administrator role is not inherited by the admin role and must be explicitly assigned.

Access Control Lists: Prevents modification of sensitive and platform-level resources in prior versions.

Property Access Control: Enables the ability to set read and write roles to individual properties in order to prevent modification.
