Including Objects in Your Scope

A valid discovery requires that you include at least one object. You can explicitly include high-level objects—domains, OUs and containers. This implicitly adds all computers in the selected object. For some discovery types, you can include objects using a query for more flexibility. For more information, see Using Queries to Define Your Scopes .

When you run the discovery Enterprise Reporter resolves the high level object to a list of targets, or in the case of an AD discovery, to a list of domains. These can be useful because if the contents of the container change, so do the targets of the discovery. Once Enterprise Reporter resolves this list, the other options in the scope can be applied.

Depending on the discovery type, you may also be able to select:

DFS Shares: A published Windows® Server DFS share can be added like any other share, from the System\Dfs-Configuration container within a domain. You can use the Browse dialog box to manually add all other DFS shares.

For more details on including objects in your scopes for each discovery type, see also:

Importing Computers to Your Scopes

On the Scopes page, instead of using the Add button to add one computer at a time, you import multiple computers to be included (or excluded) from collection for the following types of discoveries:

You can import from any text file containing a list of the fully qualified computer name (or IP addresses) of the computers to be targeted with one computer per line, as in the following example:

Only unique computer names free of invalid characters will be imported.

Select Include Computers.
Select Exclude Computers.

Select the file and click Open to start the import.

Refining Your Scope with Exclusions

This step can be done in conjunction with the inclusions. Exclusions refine your scope further. Use the browser, a query, or the Import option to exclude scopes. For more information, see Importing Computers to Your Scopes .

For example, you can add a computer, but exclude a specific folder; or add a domain and exclude a specific OU. The following rules are used to process your exclusions:

Filtering in the Browser

It can be difficult to find the objects you are looking for when you are selecting your scope. To address this, you can use filtering in the browser. Filtering starts from your selected location, and is applied one level down. For example, if you filter at the domain level, the filter is applied to the first level containers. You remove filters one at a time, starting with the last filter you applied.

In the Apply filter to box, type your search string.
3
Click Apply Filter.

Click Undo Filter to remove the last filter applied.
