IBM SVC Discovery

Hello,

Does anybody really know how to discover IBM SVC Storage Arrays, EMC Celerra using ServiceNow Discovery ? Below it's some Discovery Error output for IBM SVC Version 7.2/7.3 and EMC Celerra. Does anybody have some modified probes/sensors, best practice, a solution, some ideas   ?

Any help, informations will be really appreciated.

Our storage server classifier probe looks for 'Array' and 'NAS Head' profiles.   I think IBM SVCs don't have either of these profiles but they do have a profile for 'Storage Virtualizer'.   Your problem might be fixed by adding a criterion for storage virtualizer:



1. Go to the existing probe (https://<instance>.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=discovery_classy_cim.do?sys_id=6c83623337302000c760...)


2. Click 'New' under 'Classification Criteria'


3. Add a record with name 'storageVirtualizer' and criterion


        CIM_RegisteredProfile{{RegisteredName='Storage Virtualizer'}}.CIM_ElementConformsToProfile{{ResultClass:'CIM_ComputerSystem'}}.ElementName

Thank you for trying to give a hand in this effort!! Appreciate !
