ServiceNow Change

When Discovery runs dmidecode | cat, it returns garbage.

states that a user running London had a very similar issue and resolved it by adding the mid server property “mid.property.ssh.use_snc”

On the linux side, we made the following changes which are applicable to our entire environment, not just for the ServiceNow sandbox:


Allowed the linux ServiceNow credential – s_svcnow_mid – to run the following commands as sudo without a password:

              '/usr/sbin/dmidecode',

              '/sbin/dmidecode',

              '/usr/sbin/lsof',

              '/sbin/lsof',

              '/usr/bin/fdisk -l',

              '/usr/bin/multipath -ll',

              '/usr/sbin/dmsetup table *',

              '/usr/sbin/dmsetup table',

              '/usr/sbin/dmsetup ls',

              '/usr/bin/ls',

              '/usr/bin/cat',

              '/bin/stat',

              '/usr/bin/netstat'


Changed /etc/hostname to reflect the fqdn instead of just the short name.
