Enabling GCP Discovery

Hi Team,

 

While trying to create Cloud Discovery schedules for GCP, I cannot see Provider as Google. It only shows Azure, VMWare and AWS. I have installed the required plugins for Discovery and Service Mapping and have also installed SG connector for GCP. I know SGC should not impact Cloud Discovery schedules, but it's there.

 

Is there any additional setting that we have to do? some sys property or setting at MID Server level?

@varunkumar11863  After you install Service Graph Connector, there is an option 'Setup' under the menu of the SG. You can use that to go step by step process of setting it up. Usually, it involves, setting up the connection, Data Source and Schedule. 

SG plugin automatically adds properties and usually no modifications are expected.

Hi @Mannapuram We are doing POC for both SG and Pattern based. Could you please know how I can add Google as the provider in the Pattern based Cloud Discovery schedule? I am sensing there would be a property I am missing.

 

 

As per the docs, there should be a Mid-server installed and up before any cloud discovery. 

Please go through below links for more information on cloud-based discovery, like creating a Service account and establishing connections.

Also, there is Servicenow University course with detailed videos on various cloud-based discovery (GCP is not part of it but it does had others. Going through them might give you an idea).
