You can specify the transport protocol used to broadcast queries by choosing configuration options that meet your needs. Select the Configuration button in the Discovery Configuration.
In the Network tab, you can choose the protocols to discover and define the TCP/IP subnet sweep. Choose to enable discovery of Arcserve Backup products if you want the discovery service to broadcast queries repeatedly with a specified interval.
Choose to enable network discovery if you want the Discovery server to run a process of discovering new Windows domains and IP subnets. By default, the Discovery server runs this process only when the discovery service is restarted. You can also modify the interval, depending on how dynamic your network environment is.
Note: It is not recommended that this option be run at all times because it continually broadcasts queries which can increase network traffic.
You can direct the Discovery Configuration application to clean its tables as the Discovery service starts. Discovery tables store information about computers with a Arcserve Backup product installed. When you enable this option, the Discovery service purges the data from its tables, discovers computers with a Arcserve Backup product installed, and then updates the tables with current, accurate data.
Important! The Clean Up Discovery Table on Startup option is enabled by default. If you disable this option and uninstall Arcserve Backup applications from systems from your environment, the details about these computers will remain in the tables when the Discovery service restarts.
