Host Resources and Applications Discovery

Search for	Example	Results
A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

Job Threads

Each job is run using multiple threads. You can define a maximum number of threads that can be used concurrently when running a job. If you leave the box empty, the Data Flow Probe's default threading value is used (8).

The default value is defined in DataFlowProbe.properties in the defaultMaxJobThreads parameter.

regularPoolThreads. The maximum number of worker threads allocated to the multi-threaded activity (the default is 50).
priorityPoolThreads. The maximum number of priority worker threads (the default is 20).
Note
- The number of actual threads should never be higher than regularPoolThreads + priorityPoolThreads.
- The jobs in this module require a permanent connection to the Data Flow Probe's internal database. Therefore, these jobs are limited to a maximum number of 20 concurrent threads (which is the maximum number of concurrent connections permitted to the internal database).
- For details on the Max. Threads field, see "Execution Options Pane" in the HPE Universal CMDB Data Flow Management Guide.

Adapter Parameters for the Host Resources by Shell and Host Applications by Shell Jobs

For details, see "Adapter Parameters Pane" in the HPE Universal CMDB Data Flow Management Guide.

Parameter	Description
checkHostName	Checks whether the host name from input CI is the same with the current one. If the host name from input CI is different from the current one, the relationship between IP address and node is removed. Default: False.
discoverCPUs	Enable to discover CPUs. Default: True.
discoverDisks	Enable to discover disks. Default: True.
discoverDrivers	Enable to discover Windows device drivers. Default: False.
discoverFcHBAs	Enable to discover Fibre Channel HBAs. Default: False. Supported platforms and protocols: Windows over Shell-based and WMI protocols SunOs over Shell-based protocol HP-UX over Shell-based protocol
discoverInstalledSoftware	Perform software discovery. If set to true, all installed software (with or without a signature) is reported. Default: False. Note Setting this parameter to true may adversely affect performance on the destination machine.
discoveriSCSIInfo	Enable to discover the iSCSI information. Default: False. Note Only Windows servers (2008 and later versions) support this feature. If the namespace root\microsoft\winodows\storage does not exist on devices, this feature cannot work.
discoverMemory	Enable to discover memory. Default: True.
discoverModules	Specifies whether to perform module discovery. Default: False. Note This parameter is applicable to the Host Resources by SNMP job only.
discoverP2P	Specifies whether to report TCP connections for running processes. True. TCP connections for running processes are reported. False. TCP connections for running processes are not reported. Default: True.
discoverProcesses	False: Processes are not reported except in the following two scenarios: If you set the discoverP2P parameter to true, the processes that are related to TCP connections are reported regardless of the discoverProcesses parameter value. If you set the discoverRunningSW parameter to true, the processes that are related to the running software are reported regardless of the discoverProcesses parameter value. (The running software is specified in the applicationsSignature.xml file). True. All processes are reported. Default: False.
discoverRunningSW	Specifies whether or not to discover Running Software. Default: False.
discoverServices	False: Services are not reported. True: All services are discovered. Default: False.
discoverShares	True: Shared resources are discovered, and FileSystemExport CITs are created. Default: True.
discoverUsers	Enable to discover users. Note For Windows machines, only local users are discovered. Default: True.
filterP2PProcessesByName (formerly `filterProcessesByName`)	The names of the processes that are not reported. Note This parameter only affects the P2P discovery. Default: system, svchost.exe, lsass.exe, System Idle Process. To prevent P2P running, enter an asterisk (*) as the value.
ignoreP2PLocalConnections	False: P2P discovery does not ignore local connections. That is, when a client and server are installed on the same host and the client-server relationship connects between them, P2P discovery should report this relationship.
ignoreUnnamedPorts	Specifies whether to report ports without service names. Default: False.
knownListeningPorts	Port numbers or port names that should be reported as IP service endpoint(* to report all).
lsofPath	The path to the `lsof` command that enables process communication discovery on UNIX machines. The default value is /usr/local/bin/lsof,lsof,/bin/lsof.
P2PServerPorts	Only processes connected to these ports (as client or server) are discovered, together with this port. This parameter can include a number or a known name. You separate entries with commas. An asterisk () signifies all ports. The default value is .
useLSOF	True: Discovery tries to use lsof utility to discover port-to-process mappings on UNIX machines. Default: True.
useNetstatOnly	Specifies whether or not to run additional commands (LSOF) or to use the netstat command only. Default: False .
wmicPath	Specifies the location of the wmic.exe utility on Windows. Default: %SystemRoot%\system32\wbem\.
workInTopDown	Specifies whether it is a top-down discovery. Default: False .
