How to Run Agent Driven Inventory Discovery

This task describes how to run Agent Driven Inventory discovery in your environment. To run this discovery, perform the following steps:

Prerequisite
- UD Agents with the Agent driven flow enabled exist in the environment and communicate with the proper Data Flow Probe.
  
  Important By default, you cannot run the Inventory Discovery by Scanner job on the UD Agent with the Agent driven flow enabled. However, if you still want to run the job in this case, set the parameter abortOnAgentDrivenFlowDetected to false.
  
  For details on how to install the Universal Discovery Agent with the Agent driven flow enabled, see "How to Install the Universal Discovery Agent with the Agent Driven Flow Enabled" in the Universal CMDB Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Online Help.
- Scan files exist in the <DataFlowProbe_Home>\runtime\xmlenricher\Scans\sending directory after being uploaded by the scanner and processed by XML Enricher.
  
  Note The Agent Driven Inventory Discovery job can be triggered only after scan files exist in the preceding directory.
- By default, two-way Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is required for the Agent Driven Inventory discovery. In the out-of-the-box installation, Agent uses a self-signed certificate for two-way SSL connection.
  - If you want to use an existing self-signed certificate, see "Use an Existing Certificate for Two-Way SSL in Agent Driven Inventory Discovery" in the Universal CMDB Hardening section of the UCMDB Online Help.
  - If you want to create a new self-signed certificate, see "Create a New Self-signed Certificate for Two-Way SSL in Agent Driven Inventory Discovery" in the Universal CMDB Hardening section of the UCMDB Online Help.
