The ServiceNow
Discovery application uses the WMQ On Unix and WMQ On Windows patterns to find IBM MQ (formerly IBM WebSphere MQ) resources. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

## Request apps on the Store {#r-IBMWebsphereMQ__id_wvr_mm2_lcc}

Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) website to view all the available apps and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/sn-store-release-notes.html).{#r-IBMWebsphereMQ__inline-send-to-store}
Discovery uses the following patterns to perform horizontal discovery:

* WMQ On Unix
* WMQ On Windows

For a list of privileged commands that you need for Discovery
and Service Mapping, see [Service Mapping commands requiring a privileged user](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KmX~uDsV3RoqnUbrW~2SFA "Service Mapping uses commands requiring elevated rights to discover and map Unix-based hosts in your organization. In addition to configuring necessary credentials, configure servers in your organization to allow Service Mapping to run these commands with elevated rights."). This list
includes commands that require elevated rights to discover and map Unix-based hosts in
your organization.  
Note:  
For information on Probe to Pattern migration see the knowledge article [KB0694477](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0694477).
