Use this window to define and run a Discovery job. Use Discovery jobs to find new Windows machines that have been introduced into your environment. Discovery jobs will locate new Windows machines within your environment only--they do not discover machines running non-Windows operating systems.
For IBM Tivoli Storage Resource Manager to recognize a new non-Windows machine, you must install and license an agent on that machine.
To indicate when to run a Discovery job and what alerts to set:
Expand the Monitoring section of the function tree and click the Discovery node. The content pane displays the two tabs for defining the parameters for the Discovery job: When to Run and Alert.
Enter the desired values in the tabs.
Click to save the Discovery job definition.
When you expand the Discovery node in the function tree, a sub node for each job that has run will appear. The number of jobs that is kept for viewing is definable in the configuration facility of the product.
