Discovery tasks

The HP ProLiant Management Pack 1.3 for MOM 2005 includes a task to manually discover and classify
HP ProLiant servers. By default, computer discovery within MOM 2005 runs automatically on a
predefined schedule. The HP Discovery task can be launched to manually identify and populate data for

an individual server into its appropriate computer group outside of the regular MOM 2005 discovery
schedule.

2.

Select Public View.

3.

Select a computer from the Computers view under the HP ProLiant Servers folder.

4.

Click the Tasks button on the menu bar to display the Tasks pane.

5.

Expand the HP ProLiant Servers folder.

6.

Select Discovery to expand the contents, and then select Service Discovery. The Launch Task Wizard
opens.

7.

Click Next.
