Overview

HPE OneView and HPE OneView Dashboard by default are discovered through heuristics, so no credentials are needed to be enabled for the scan. However, expect to retrieve little information in such case. A Host name is reported as host IP with underscores, for example, 172_22_XX_XX. No additional links are modeled.

To get the full model of this product, we recommend enabling HPE OneView REST API credentials. Hence, the Host node will have a precise name, and OneView (Dashboard) Software Instance will have management links to related Devices and Hosts and Blade Enclosures.

Nodes and Attributes

Host

• type
• key
• model
• name
• os
• os_build
• os_class
• os_type
• os_vendor
• os_version
• serial
• vendor
• __all_ip_addrs
• __all_mac_addrs
• age_count

Software Instance

The HPE.OneView pattern module is responsible for modeling HPE OneView(Dashboard) Software Instance that has management links to OneView managed nodes. 

• type
• key
• name
• short_name
• version
• product_version
• build

API Calls

The mentioned nodes should already be present or modeled in BMC Discovery. The following API calls are executed by the HPE.OneView pattern module to find managed devices, hosts, network devices, etc. and link them to OneView SI:

• /rest/server-hardware
• /rest/interconnects
• /rest/storage-systems

HPE OneView Blade Enclosures

The HPE_SynergyBladeSystem module executes /rest/enclosures API call. Based on the output the following nodes and relationships are modeled:

Blade Enclosure

Hardware Container

• key 
• vendor 
• model
• type = "Blade Enclosure"
• name
• serial
• part_number

Managed by HPE OneView SI. Containing related HPE Processor Blades and HPE I/O Modules.

Blade Enclosure Hardware Container

Processor Blade

Hardware Component

• key 
• vendor 
• model
• type = "Processor Blade"
• name
• slot
• uuid
• all_ip_addrs

Contained within the Blade Enclosure node and has Provider-Consumer relations to the host that resides on this Bay.

I/O Module

Hardware Component

• key 
• vendor 
• model
• type = "I/O Module"
• name
• serial 
• role
• bay_number
• all_ip_addrs
• part_number
• linked_enclosure

Contained within Blade Enclosure Hardware Container node.
