Set up a dedicated serverless discovery schedule for NetApp SolidFire cluster and node discovery.

## Before you begin

* Verify the MID Server is set to Active and can reach the target NetApp SolidFire cluster.
* Create an alias for the basic authentication credential. For more information, see [Create a basic authentication credential alias for NetApp SolidFire discovery](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/oVbyMA5tyB3KsNmJUV~kMA "Create an alias and add it to a basic authentication credential to discover NetApp SolidFire clusters.").
* Obtain the management IP address of the target SolidFire cluster.
