Viewing Discovery Run Detail

You can view the details of a Discovery Service run in the DiscoveryServiceO365 log, which is located in the folder where the Discovery Service files reside (by default C:\Program Files\Metalogix\ControlPoint Online\ControlPointFeatures\Services\Discovery).

 

A new log is created each week, and the file name is in the format DiscoveryService{WeekOfTheYear}{MMMyyyy}.log.  For example, DicoveryService11Mar2022.log. The level of detail recorded in the log depends on the Discovery Trace Switch values.

Running Discovery Interactively from the ControlPoint Application

ControlPoint Application Administrators can run the Discovery Service interactively from the ControlPoint application interface between scheduled Discovery runs.

NOTE:  For Discovery to be run interactively, the Discovery Service must be installed, configured, and running.  

To run a ControlPoint Discovery interactively:

1From the Manage ControlPoint panel choose ControlPoint Management > Discovery.

NOTE:  If you are not a ControlPoint Application Administrator, this option will be hidden.

Partial Discovery

2Click [Run Now].

The results show each table in the ControlPoint Services (xcadmin) database that the Discovery Service collects data from.  The Auto Refresh Setting can be enabled to refresh after a specified number of seconds..

NOTE:  The Queue Date is the date and time of the next scheduled Discovery.

·prepare content analysis (CA) jobs for upload to Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager

·upload CA jobs from ControlPoint to Sensitive Content Manager for scanning

·receive results of scanned CA jobs from Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager.

Metalogix ControlPoint SCM Services run as Windows Services on the server where ControlPoint is installed.

 

O365 SCM Services

ControlPoint SCM Services can be configured at the time ControlPoint is installed or upgraded, or at any time when the Configuration Wizard is launched.  See Configuring ControlPoint Services for details.
