Data collected for Microsoft Azure Cloud Discovery

  • リリースバージョン: Australia

  • 所要時間:10分
  • Discovery collects information about cloud resources in Microsoft Azure datacenters. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

    Request apps on the Store

    Visit the ServiceNow Store to view all the available apps, and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the ServiceNow Store version history release notes.

    Prerequisites

    Verify that the applications are up to date
    • Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns
    • CMDB CI Class Models
    • Visibility Content
    Create Azure cloud credentials
    Create Microsoft Azure credentials that can access the Microsoft Azure account. For more information, see Create Azure cloud credentials.
    Configure a discovery schedule
    Create a discovery schedule in Cloud Discovery Workspace

    Verify the REST API Permissions

    Download the Cloud Discovery patterns spreadsheet so you can grant user permissions required for running the Discovery patterns. In addition to permissions, the spreadsheet also includes useful information such as pattern names, types, CI Classes, and links to vendor documentation. New patterns are available quarterly, so check periodically to be sure you have the latest version of the spreadsheet.

    How Discovery finds Microsoft Azure resources

    Discovery uses the Cloud Provisioning and Governance API and Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns to find cloud resources.

    表 : 1. Default patterns
    Pattern Description
    Azure DataBase (LP)
    Discovers database types of:
    • Microsoft.sql/servers
    • microsoft.sql/managedInstances
    • microsoft.dbformysql
    • microsoft.documentdb/databaseaccounts
    • microsoft.cache/redis
    • microsoft.dbforpostgresql/servers
    • microsoft.dbformysql/servers
    • microsoft.dbformysql/flexibleservers
    • microsoft.dbforpostgresql/flexibleservers

    Populates the [cmdb_ci_cloud_database] table.

    Azure LoadBalancer TD Retrieves Microsoft Azure load balancers and populates the cmdb_ci_lb_service table. This pattern is only used by Service Mapping for top-down discovery, not by the Discovery application for horizontal discovery.
    Azure WebSite (LP) Retrieves Microsoft Azure web servers and populates the Cloud WebServers [cmdb_ci_cloud_webserver] and IP address [cmdb_ci_ip_address] tables.
