oContent Analysis (CA) jobs ready to be uploaded from ControlPoint to Sensitive Content Manager for scanning.

AND

oScan results ready to be downloaded from Sensitive Content Manager to ControlPoint for further action.

AND

§Because they support multi-threading, SCM Services are especially suited to very large content analysis jobs.

NOTE:  If you want to configure services at a later time, you can do so by launching the Configuration Wizard from the server on which ControlPoint is installed (using the same on premises and O365 login accounts  used to install the ControlPoint application).  After you have verified the Wizard has finished checking installed components, select Configure Services.

IMPORTANT:  Before Services Can be Run:

Before you can run Discovery and Sensitive Content Manager services, make sure that:

·TLS version 1.2 is enabled on the server where the services are installed

AND

Using Discovery to Collect Information for the ControlPoint Database Cache

ControlPoint Discovery is a tenant-specific background task that collects information and stores it in the ControlPoint Services (xcAdmin) database cache for use in ControlPoint data analysis and reporting.

·for use in ControlPoint data analysis and reporting

·to populate and update statistics lists used to create dashboards.

Discovery is triggered by the ControlPoint Discovery Service to run on a pre-defined schedule.

If you want to ensure that your ControlPoint analyses have the most recent cached data—you can run the Discovery process interactively from the ControlPoint application. The ControlPoint installer includes the option to configure the Discovery Service.  

If the ControlPoint Discovery Service is not installed, the operations and parameters that rely on cached data collected by Discovery are disabled.
