# Red Hat JBoss EAP Host Controller

# Red Hat JBoss EAP Host Controller pattern-based discovery {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated August 18, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns uses the Red Hat JBoss - Enterprise App Platform Host Controller pattern to find JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) Host Controller instances running on Windows servers. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

## Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements {#red-hat-jboss-eap-hc-pattern__section_prerequisites}

Verify that the following applications are up to date
:
    * Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns
    * Visibility Content
    * CMDB CI Class Models
    * ITOM Content Service
    {#red-hat-jboss-eap-hc-pattern__ul_apps}

Create Windows credentials
:   For more information, see [Windows credentials](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r_WindowsCredentialsForm&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US).

Verify read access to the application module files on the application server
:   Verify you have permission for the following command: `powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "Get-ChildItem '{process.environmentVariables.JBOSS_HOME.value}\modules' -Recurse -Filter MANIFEST.MF |
    Where-Object { $_.FullName -like '*org\jboss\as\product*' } | ForEach-Object { Select-String -Path $_.FullName -Pattern 'JBoss-Product-Release-(Name|Version)' }"`.

Schedule a horizontal discovery
:   For more information, see [Schedule a horizontal discovery](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/VO0owNull6HAfXGFWMKxhg#t_CreateADiscoverySchedule "A discovery schedule determines what horizontal discovery searches for, when it runs, and which MID Servers are used. Create a discovery schedule for your local environment or a schedule for discovering the resources in your cloud service account.").

## Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery {#red-hat-jboss-eap-hc-pattern__section_data_collected}

Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Red Hat JBoss - Enterprise App Platform Host Controller pattern.

If you have the Software Asset Management Core (com.snc.sam.core) or Software Asset Management (com.snc.software_asset_management) plugins, Discovery also populates the Software Installation \[cmdb_sam_sw_install\] table.
