No Server found in my AWS Server (Cloud Management)

William Lee

Began experimenting and exploring the capabilities of Cloud Management. I followed the tutorial video found on the ServiceNow Youtube channel for the initial set up using AWS, and everything seemed to work, but a colleague stated that there was a lack of a server found in the Discovery results. Doubled check the hardware for the cloud and he was right, no server found. Did I screw up the setup? How do I fix this? Wanted to speak to anyone who had run into a similar issue and could provide some guidance.

The AWS instance I am running is an EC2 instance, type t2.micro. Thanks in advance and appreciate the help.

were you looking in the virtual machine instance table? That’s where API cloud discovery will populate. Now running IP based discovery will discover the Linux and Windows servers running on ec2 and all the additional info you can’t get from AWS hypervisor. The new cloud discovery quick start homepage allows you to autorun IP discovery automatically after doing cloud discovery. You might be missing OS creds.

Update:

We confirmed that in AWS 169.254.169.254 is allowed by default to all EC2 instances.

The root cause that one of my EC2 instances was that the default gateway on the EC2's interface was incorrect.

 

I had others that had successfully passed the manual test of running the Powershell command locally. I'll continue to troubleshoot and report back what I find.
