Discovery Schedule
Use this page to display and edit discovery schedules.
The Technical Support Appliance is initially configured with a discovery schedule that runs discoveries for all Scope Sets. This schedule can be edited or disabled, but cannot be deleted.
User defined discovery schedules can be created that allow discovery of a portion of your IT network. Through the use of multiple discovery schedules, the discovery of your IT network can be spread out to dates and times that make the most sense for your organization.

As part of Pre-Discovery Maintenance (automatically performed at the beginning of any Discoveries), some functions such as Inventory Summary, Discovery Schedule, Discovery Scopes and Credentials will be unavailable. Please ensure the Discovery Manager status is depicted by a green check mark icon in the Summary screen before resuming activity (typically up to 10 minutes).
