1. For your Instance you need to activate the discovery plugins On Developer page Manage Instance then go to Activate Plugins and select the discovery.Once it activates.In your Instance, you will get the Discovery section in the application menu.

2.If you are planning discovery through MID server then need to Install MID server using ITOM Guided Setup.

3. Configure the discovery.

4. Please verify if Nimble Storage is able to ping from your mid server devices.

If you know the IP address of Nimble Storage then you can try the Quick Discovery from discovery scheduled.

Please check the following URL for Storage Discovery

Could you please provide any additional steps OR Logs if you already did?

@sboddu (Santosh)-

Did you ever find anything that works?  We've tried CIM/SMI-S and HTTP classification, but we aren't able to get any useful discovery information out of these storage devices.

Hello @dthenderson

I am wondering if you managed to find useful discovery information for Nimble. I would appreciate if you share your findings. Thanks a lot 🙂
