Update Lists By Scan

The Update Lists by Scan page scans one or more machine IDs and returns lists of counter categories, counters, instances and services to select from when creating or editing a monitor set.

Typically only a handful of machines of each operating system type need to be scanned to provide a set of comprehensive lists.
