ITOM Visibility discovers IBM WebSphere DataPower. The Discovery feature uses the DataPower Server pattern for horizontal discovery. The Service Mapping feature uses the DataPower pattern for top-down discovery.

Prerequisites

Configure the following credentials before discovering the IBM WebSphere DataPower devices:

  • SNMP credentials

    SNMP credentials are necessary for using the following SNMP queries:

    • For horizontal discovery of the Data Power Hosting Server [cmdb_ci_datapower_server]:
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1
      • 1.3.6.1.4.1.14685.3.1.196.1
      • 1.3.6.1.4.1.14685.3.1.11.1
      • 1.3.6.1.4.1.14685.3.1.112.1
    • For top-down discovery of the Data Power [cmdb_ci_datapower_server]:
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1
      • 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5
      • 1.3.6.1.4.1.14685.3.1.11.1
  • Applicative credentials

    Together with SNMP credentials, applicative credentials are required to discover DataPower application domains, otherwise known as logical CIs.

    In addition, SNMP and applicative credentials are used for top-down discovery of applicative relationships (corresponding application DataPower domain).

  • User with permissions to run SOAP

    Permissions to run SOAP queries are necessary for top-down discovery of the DataPower Web Service and MQ connection.

Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery

By default, Discovery uses the DataPower Server pattern to perform the discovery.

Note: For information on Probe to Pattern migration see the knowledge article KB0694477.
