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.
