Deleting a Discovery

You can only delete a discovery when there are no tasks currently running. Deleting a discovery does not delete any previously collected data.

Alternatively, you can cancel the running tasks in the discovery, or cancel the discovery, and then delete it. For more information, see Canceling a Task or Discovery .


	NOTE: If there is more than one Enterprise Reporter administrator in your organization, use caution when deleting a discovery, as it will no longer be available to any user.

Starting the Configuration Manager

When you open the Configuration Manager, your first step is to connect to a server. Connecting to a server gives you access to its associated clusters, nodes, and discoveries. You need to know the name of the server, and the port number. The server name is the name of the computer where the server is installed. The port number was configured during the server installation. For more information, see Viewing Information About Your Enterprise Reporter Configuration and Installing Enterprise Reporter.Technical Documentation.


	NOTE: If UAC is enabled, you must have elevated permissions to open the Configuration Manager.


	NOTE: To start the Configuration Manager, you must be a discovery administrator. For more information, see Installing and Configuring the Configuration Manager and Role Based Security in Enterprise Reporter in the Quest Enterprise Reporter Installation and Deployment Guide in the Technical Documentation.
