Working with Discoveries and Tasks

How is a Discovery Processed?

When a discovery runs, the process is as follows:

•

The server dispatches the resolution task to an available node in the cluster.

•

The resolution task reduces the scope to the smallest possible number of tasks. As tasks are resolved, they go into the queue and are assigned sequentially to the nodes within the assigned cluster. Nodes can continue to accept tasks until they reach their maximum number of concurrent tasks.


	NOTE: A task may be rejected if the target is already being collected by another processing discovery.

•

If no nodes are available to process a task, the discovery is in the queue in a Pending state. When a node becomes available, the discovery will begin processing.

•

If the task is a collection task, data is written to the database, the last collected time for the parent object is updated, and if there are changes to any data, the timestamp is updated. The collector examines existing data and compares it to the new data, and only sends changed information to the database. This keeps network traffic to a minimum.


	NOTE: You can see the number of items that have been changed, and therefore updated, in the statistics for the task. For more information, see Viewing Statistics .

•

Once all tasks have been processed, the discovery is finished.


	NOTE: For information on configuring nodes, see Creating Your First Cluster and Node and Improving the Performance of Your Discoveries .

Modifying a Discovery

Types of Tasks

Each discovery is broken down into tasks for processing. You will see these task types as you manage your discoveries. There are several types of tasks.

Table 50. Types of Tasks in Configuration Manager
Task Type	Description
Resolution	Examines your scope and reduces it to the smallest number of targets. For a Microsoft SQL discovery, a target is a SQL Server.
Discovery	Displays as the name of the target. A discovery task collects the data from the target and updates the Enterprise Reporter database.
Group Membership	When the collection requires information from other targets, to improve performance the work is performed at the end of the collection. This can prevent the same data from being repeatedly collected.

Manually Running a Discovery

You can manually run a discovery at any time—unless it is currently running. Before you manually run a discovery, check the Next Run column in the Manage Discoveries main view to see if the next run is scheduled to start soon. A Discovery that has no enabled schedules does not show a Next Run time.

To manually run a discovery

1

On the Manage Discoveries pane, select the discovery.
