Performing an Auto-Discovery Scan

If you know that resources have been added on a platform that you are monitoring, you can run an auto-discovery scan on the platform to locate the resources. Once the resources have been discovered, you can add them to your inventory for monitoring.
To perform an auto-discovery scan of a platform, follow these steps.
  1. Using the Resources tab, go to the Detail page for the platform that you want to scan.
  2. Select Tools Menuthen selectNew Auto-Discovery
  3. If you want to scan for all servers and system processes on the platform, click OK.
  4. If you want to scan for specific server types, select the check boxes for the server types that you want to scan for. You can also select attributes such as directories to include or exclude from the scan and the depth at which to scan. When you have specified the scanning criteria, click OK to start the scan.
