Hi,

In my Azure account I have some VM's and each of VM's have asset tags , for eg. Company Location tag which is used to store location of my company . Using Discovery I have achieved cloud based integration of Azure - CMDB .

But for every Virtual machine instance asset tags are available in Azure, whereas in ServiceNow Asset tag with respect to VM is not available or not fetched from Azure. Please help to get this Asset Tag in sync with Azure.

Hi Alias,

The OOB discovery does not fetch that information from Azure for VMs so you will have to customize the pattern to get the info and set it to the VM instance table. Below are the things which are discovered OOB for azure discovery.

Data collected for Microsoft Azure Cloud Discovery

Thanks Mohit,

How can I customize pattern ?

 

 

1.You can do that by going to Discovery Patterns from Pattern Designer in left navigation.

2.Select the pattern 'Azure - Virtual Machine (LP)' from list of patterns and open the record.

3. Add Extension step to the pattern.

4. Inside the extension steps you can write your steps to get the azure tag and set it to your vm instance table.
