Inventory Discovery

Inventory Discovery is typically managed and run based on Management Zones, using wizard-driven activities. For information about Inventory Discovery activities, see Inventory Discovery Activity. For other information, see the section about Inventory Discovery in the Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Help. For information about Inventory by Scanner Discovery jobs, see Inventory by Scanner Discovery.
