How to create Service Mapping discovery schedule

[Antal1]

How do I create a discovery schedule for business services which have entry points defined? I do not want to run horizontal host or application discovery but the top-down discovery of service mapping.

Currently the only option I see is to reuse the script from Run Discovery UI action and create my own schedule record:

var bsManager = new SNC.BusinessServiceManager();
bsManager.startDiscovery(current.sys_id);

Antal,

Application discovery is the top down discovery. Check out Create a discovery schedule for an application CI

What is the reason for not going with OOTB process to keep your maps up to date?

If you want to run a custom schedule, you can go to "Scheduled Jobs" and create a custom job to run below code

var map = new GlideRecord('cmdb_ci_service_discovered'); //Query the business services

map.addQuery('');   // Need to update query

map.query();

while (map.next()) {

      var bsManager = new SNC.BusinessServiceManager();

      bsManager.startDiscovery(map.sys_id);

}

Hi Patrick,

Although I have 20 services, the All applications schedule does not do anything when I run it.

What process are you referring to please?

What do you mean it doesn't do anything? When the discovery runs what do you get back in the ecc?

Like I say, it is empty, it completes instantly
