# Create a serverless discovery schedule for NetApp SolidFire discovery

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://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-operations-management/discovery-and-service-mapping-patterns/create-alias-basic-auth-cred-solidfire.md).
-   Obtain the management IP address of the target SolidFire cluster.
