Hop Limit

You use the Hop Limit setting to limit the discovery process and prevent it from endlessly discovering neighbors of neighbors.

The hop count for a CI in a topology map is the total number of steps along the path from the root of the map (Business Element) to the CI.

The discovery process halts when the discovery reaches a new provider and the hop count for this provider reaches the hop limit. This means that the discovery process does not discover the provider's neighbors.

When you create a Service Discovery activity in the UCMDB Browser module, the initial value of the hop limit is set to 10. You can edit the value in the UCMDB User Interface.
