How Process Classification works in discovery?

[shyamsundar1]

Hi All,

Need clarity on this.

Lets take an Oracle Instance.

We have probes for this and a Process classification. So is it like the probes provides info to process classification for creating the relationship?

How and when the process classification are triggered?

Hi Sundar,

During the exploration phase, Servicenow will trigger Application Dependency Mapping probe( ADM probe), which will find the active process and active connections running in Linux or windows box.

For an example in a server MSSQL server is installed so definitely sqlservr.exe will show in the active process.   So the ADM probe will find all the active process which includes your sqlservr.exe. After ADM these process classifications will come and look for sqlservr.exe is showing in the discovered process. If it's found then it will trigger SQL probes to find more Information about the version, database catalog, etc. Also, it will create relationship between your database instance and the server

If you have a look at all your process classifications it will trigger Application specific probes with conditions. Most of the conditions based upon the server's active running process and active connections between your server and other devices

Based upon the impact hit like, helpful or correct.
