Pure Storage FlashArray discovery

  • 릴리스 버전: Australia

  • 소요 시간: 14분

    • The Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application uses the Pure Storage Flash Array pattern to find Pure Storage FlashArray on your infrastructure. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

    주:
    Starting March 2024, the pattern execution is disabled by default. To create a CI for Pure Storage FlashArray, synchronize the pattern to the MID Server.

    Request new or enhanced Patterns on the ServiceNow® Store

    Visit the ServiceNow Store to view all the available updates 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
    • Visibility Content
    Verify the configuration of the credentials

    Configure basic authentication credentials to classify FlashArray. For more information, see basic authentication.

    Verify the permissions to run REST API calls
    The Pure Storage Flash Array pattern supports the API 2.17 version.
    • /api/1.17/auth/apitoken
    • /api/2.17/auth/session
    • /api/2.17/arrays
    • /api/2.17/volumes
    • /api/2.17/volume-groups
    • /api/2.17/host-groups
    • /api/2.17/hardware
    • /api/2.17/dns

    주:
    The February 2024 Pure Storage pattern version supports only iSCSI protocol discovery.

    Running Discovery

    To run discovery using Patterns, create a discovery schedule that targets the management IP address of the FlashArray storage. For more information, see Running discoveries in your network.

    Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery

    Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Pure Storage Flash Array Pattern.
