Precisely Ironstream extends ServiceNow's abilities to include mission-critical IBM i environments. Using Ironstream for ServiceNow Discovery for IBM i, you can quickly configure and launch secure discovery of IBM i resources and their relationships. Precisely Ironstream also helps you to auto-populate and maintain the ServiceNow Configuration Management Database (CMDB). Easily map dependencies and assign relationships automatically between ServiceNow and IBM i.
The Ironstream for ServiceNow Discovery for IBM i solution is a paid application. It requires the purchase of the ServiceNow Discovery for IBM i client and agent to enable the app to perform IBM i discovery.
- Seamless Integration into ServiceNow Discovery. A complete end-to-end solution
which includes IBM i environments. - Enable powerful service impact analysis. The combination of Ironstream and ServiceNow enables you to autopopulate and maintain the CMDB with all major IBM i CIs and CI relationships.
- Discovery maps hierarchical dependencies and assigns the appropriate relationship type
between Configuration Items (CIs) that it finds. - Supports dynamic scheduling of discovery tasks to keep objects accurate and up to date.
Changes in this version
- Write discovered MQ data to out-of-the-box CMDB locations as well as IBM i frame and LPAR data. All previously discovered data continues to be written to the set of legacy custom tables in addition to this.
- Use of IRE in place of GlideRecord to control insert vs. update logic for the additional data now being written to out-of-the-box locations.
- Discovery of data can have different ServiceNow user IDs set to control the scope of Discovery in a Domain Separated environment.
Please refer to the Ironstream documentation for full details of the preparation and choices you need to make before implementing this software.
