Generating Scanners Page

After you have selected the scanners to be generated and have clicked Generate, the last page of the Scanner Generator wizard is displayed. This page shows the progress information during the generation of the actual scanner executable.

Important information

General information about the wizard is available in Scanner Generator Wizard.

In Enterprise Mode, the scanner configuration is generated instead of stand-alone scanners, and the configuration is uploaded to the UCMDB server and stored in the UCMDB database as the Scanner Configuration resource files in the Inventory Discovery adapter. If you chose to generate your scanner from a stored default predefined configuration on the server when you were on the Standard Configuration page, you will be told to rename it, since default predefined configurations cannot be overwritten.

Right-clicking anywhere in the log window displays a shortcut menu which allows you to:

  • Save the contents of the window to a log file.

  • Copy the contents of the log window to the clipboard.

  • Clear the log window.

If a scanner already exists with the same name in the chosen directory, a confirmation message is displayed. This allows you to choose whether to overwrite the existing scanner.

After the scanners have been generated, click Finish to exit the Scanner Generator. The generated scanners can be found in the directory specified in the Scanners tab of the Scanners to Generate page.
