Discovery Profiles The discovery profiles set up equipment discovery for Dell OpenManage Network Manager. The summary view displays the Name, Description, Default (the green check indicates the default profile), whether the profile is Scheduled and Next Execution Date for scheduled discovery. NOTE: When Dell OpenManage Network Manager discovers unknown devices, it examines the RFC1213 MIB for hints of the device's capabilites, determining if it looks similar to a layer 3 router or a layer 2 switch. Since some device can do both, Dell OpenManage Network Manager classifies such ambiguous devices as routers. Menu Options When you right-click a profile, the following menu options appear (in addition to the Common Menu Items): New- Opens Discovery Profile Editor in new profile mode. (see General on page 158) Edit- Opens Discovery Profile Editor. Copy- Opens Discovery Profile Editor, and renames the selected profile as "CopyOf[Original Name]". Execute-Executes a discovery profile. This also produces an Audit trail (see Audit Trail / Jobs Screen on page 95). A message appears indicating the success or failure of discovery execution. Tip Discovery execution continues in the background even when you close the audit trail / jobs screen, but the message indicating success / failure still appears when the discovery process is done.
