Provider Access node

A Provider Access node represents the accesses to integrations (for example, a database integration or a query using the vSphere API) for a specific endpoint for a given Discovery-Run-node. It has relationships to each of the Integration-Result-node queries made by patterns to that database integration.

The endpoint attribute of a Provider Access node describes the IP v4 address at which that SQL database integration resides.

Provider Access Lifecycle

The following section describes the scenarios in which a Provider Access is created,updated or destroyed.

Creation

A Provider Access node is created when the first query is made to a database integration at that endpoint during the course of a Discovery Run. A Provider Access node is always created and stored, whether individual Integration-Result-node queries succeed or fail.

Update

The endpoint attribute on a Provider Access node is never updated. The hard_failure attribute can become true if a newly performed query represents a hard failure.

Removal

Provider Access nodes are removed when the Discovery Run node they are linked to is destroyed. See Discovery Run Node for more details. When a Provider Access node is destroyed, its related Integration Result nodes and their children are also destroyed.

Attributes and relationships of the ProviderAccess node

The attributes of the ProviderAccess node are described in the following table:

UI Name Attribute Name and Type	Description
Provider Access Key key : string	provider_type/endpoint
Provider Access Type provider_type : string	The type of the provider
Range Prefix range_prefix : string	Distinguish overlapping address spaces
Endpoint endpoint : string	The host that was accessed
Dynamic Connections is_dynamic : boolean	Whether the integration point is for dynamic
Hard Failure hard_failure : boolean	True if there have been hard failures for this Provider Access type
Retrieved by scanning appliance is_consolidation : boolean	If present, always have the value True and indicates that the data for this ProviderAccess originated from a scanning appliance before being consolidated on this one
