ServiceNow Agent Client Collector for MSSQL Discovery

[rahulyamgar]

Hello team,

We just started with using the ACC agents for the ServiceNow Discovery. Its bringing all the good stuff related to OS details and running processes, software installations. What we are looking for is Database Instances.

Can we have the database instances discovered and relationships created using ACC? We dont have a choice of using Horizontal discovery for this. 

Please suggest. @ashutoshmunot ITOM Success Packs 

Thanks,

This is working as of the vancouver release we are currently doing testing with the ACC for visibilty and it can discover all the windows database information on the servers by executing the patterns locally.

All, @rahulyamgar 
Hope you have been able to refer to this documentation page.

We have recently performed this on our infrastructure and able to discover the SQL Instances (and also Databases).
It's primarily using ACC (and elements of horizontal discovery via MID Server).

Few Important Points:
1. Make sure to follow all the steps described in the documentation
2. Also, ensure to update the pattern allow list in the agent's config folder to the one mentioned in https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB1585764

We too struggled a bit and also reached out to NOW Support for some further clarifications and troubleshooting.
Please let the community know how it goes and will be happy to provide any additional info that could help.
