Scheduled One Time Rediscoveries

While you can always perform individual device rediscoveries on demand (see the Rediscover option in  Assets Reports Actions), you can also schedule rediscoveries that occur:

• Only once, on a date and time that you define

• On a recurring schedule that you define

Scheduled rediscoveries provide critical asset change information that you can report upon, then present to your customers as validation of your asset management services. That information can also suggest further, revenue-generating services that you can sell.

To Schedule a One Time Only Rediscovery

1. From the Assets category page click on the Schedule Rediscovery (One Time) link to display the Schedule One Time Rediscovery form.

2. Select the Schedule Once radio button, then select the desired month, day, year and AM/PM from the drop-downs.

   This field accepts time information in hh:mm format only.

4. To limit the collected information to just newly-discovered systems information, leave the Asset Inventory Only checkbox selected.
