Need to fetch Application name on VM(Azure) form level

[Ashu Rohtak]

Hello Experts,

I am struggling on an issue where "Application name" is not populating on "Virtual Machine Instance" form. This virtual machine is related to Azure.

And here the setting is done in a way: If the application name is automatic updating by any where (may be its discovery or some integration or API call) then mandatory attributes(set by customer) automatically populates on the form.

If application name is not there then those attributes remain unfilled. 

So my question is

What is the best method to do it?

Is the application name on VM form is automatic populating by discovery or not?

Is there any provision to extend the discovery pattern so we can get the application name with that extended pattern.

Note: The application name is picking from "application service table".

Hope I clarify my requirement here.

TIA.

Hi @Ashu Rohtak ,

I don't understand what you are trying to accomplish. Application Services are logical containers of a stack of CIs. It's usually not descibed as an attribute. Especially not on a VM instance. The VM instance should have a CI relationship to a compute CI. Applications CI runs on the compute CI.

The relationship between Compute CI and VM Instance CI is build when Horizonal Discovery is performed on the Compute CI. The Horizonal Discovery may also identify the Application CIs running on the Compute CI.

Hi @Niklas Peterson ,

Thanks for your valuable reply. Actually there was some internal concern on this issue.

The practice team(implementation) has removed the app table from there where its picking the application name.

Now the issue has been fixed and its working fine now.

Thanks for take a look on my query and your valuable suggestion.
