What's New in Content Pack 22

This section provides information about new features and enhancements to Content Pack 22.

Discovered Applications

Added support for discovering the following applications:

  • IBM DB2 Universal Database 11.1
  • IBM WebSphere MQ 9.0
  • JBoss Application Server 10.1
  • Microsoft Active Directory on Windows Server 2016
  • Microsoft Cluster Services on Windows Server 2016
  • Microsoft Hyper-V on Windows Server 2016
  • Microsoft Network Load Balancer on Windows Server 2016

Discovered Operating Systems

Added support for discovery and inventory (including agent support) for the following operating systems:

  • Apple macOS Sierra 10.12
  • Windows Server 2016 (Nano Server is not yet supported)

New Discoveries

Added support for Cloud Foundry Event Discovery.

Cloud Foundry provides RESTful API to get the events. The Cloud Foundry Event Monitor job queries the events every 30 seconds and reports them into UCMDB.

For more details, see Discovery Modules.

Integrations

  • Added support for integrating HPE Network Automation (NA) 10.21.

  • Added a new parameter NNMiHost to the Pull Topology from NNMi adapter. NNMiHost is the host name to use with the NNMi integration. You must fill in this parameter if FIPS is enabled. NNMiHost has priority over IP address, which means instead of IP address, NNMiHost will be used if it is filled in.

Others

  • Added a new parameter max_include_depth to the JEE WebSphere Liberty Core by Shell job. This parameter defines the maximum recursion depth of the included file discovery. The default value is 5.
  • Added a new parameter OracleHomePath to the Oracle Application Server by Shell job. This parameter defines the Oracle home path(s), separated by semicolons.
  • Added a new topic Brief Introduction to Storage Discovery.

  • Based on IP addresses, the node has more applications than the real ones after running the Host Applications/Resources by Shell job. Therefore, a new parameter checkHostName is added to the Host Resources by Shell and Host Applications by Shell jobs.

    This parameter checks whether the host name from input CI is the same with the current one. If the host name from input CI is different from the current one, the relationship between IP address and node is removed.

  • Brocade switches do not represent the LLDP local interface mapping in LLDP OIDs to the real local interface OIDs based on indexes. Therefore, a new parameter mapLLDPPortsByNames is added to the Layer2 Topology CDP-LLDP based by SNMP job.

    If setting the parameter to true, the LLDP entry is mapped to the local port based on names. If setting the parameter to false, the LLDP entry is mapped to the local port based on indexes. The default value is false.

    This parameter is recommended to be set to true in case of LLDP based discovery of Brocade switches; otherwise the data might be missing or incorrect.

  • QLogic Host Bus Adapter (HBA) can be discovered on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
  • The Storage Devices Topology by CIM job can discover logical unit numbers (LUNs). The LUN is identified by its ID and one of connected FC ports or iSCSI adapters. The LUN can be used to map the logical volume at the storage side to the physical volume (or disk device) at the server side.
  • Scanner version: 10.31.000.155
  • Universal Discovery Agent version: 10.31.000.155
  • Inventory Discovery Knowledge version: 2016.12
