ComponentReconciliation

The following information defines the component reconciliation logic that is used in component discovery. First, this information determines whether the system has already discovered this component or not. Then, the reconciliation logic determines whether to update an existing component or create a new one.

There can be multiple ordered algorithms per metric family. If a metric family does not define a reconciliation algorithm, a default one with match attribute Item.Name is applied.
