Understanding Discoveries

Defining the Data Collection (Discoveries)

Once you have configured a cluster, you can begin setting up discoveries. Discoveries define the targets from which you will be collecting data. Enterprise Reporter uses a "collect all" model. After you run a discovery, you can run reports that include the data you have collected. For more information on reporting, see the Quest Enterprise Reporter Report Manager User Guide in the Technical Documentation.

Enterprise Reporter includes the following types of on-premises discoveries:

Active Directory
