Setting Discovery Policies for Computers

The following Discovery computer policies can be set by OU/container or by individual computer. Setting a policy by computer has precedence over setting a policy by OU/container.

• Automatic deployment of agents on newly discovered machines.
• Manual deployment of agents on selected machines.
• Agent deployment on the system hosting the Active Directory domain.
• Designating all machines or selected machines as portal candidates.
• Automatic assignment of domain machines to machine groups based on the OU hierarchy in Active Directory. Alternatively you can assign domain machines to a fixed machine group.

Discovery computer policies are set using the Domains > Domain Watch > Policies > OU/Containers tab or Computers tab.
