PRTG Manual: Selecting Discovery Results
The Select Discovery Result form lets you select a previously saved discovery result. It displays a list of all discovery results that are currently saved in the UVexplorer database. To select a discovery result, click on the desired discovery result in the list, and then click the Select button. (Alternatively, you can just double-click on the desired discovery result.)
Viewing available discovery results
To assist in selecting a discovery result, the following properties are displayed for each result:
Discovery Result Name
This is the name assigned to the discovery result when it was saved.
This is the discovery result’s type, which describes the origin of the result. The possible values for this property are:
▪Manual – The result was created by a manual (i.e., non-scheduled) discovery.
▪Scheduled (Raw) – The result stores the raw result of a scheduled discovery execution. It stores a snapshot of what the network looked like during one particular execution of the scheduled discovery. The Discovery Result Name property indicates which scheduled discovery created the result.
▪Scheduled (Rollup) – The result stores the ‘rollup’ for a scheduled discovery. Unlike raw discovery results, of which there is one per execution of the scheduled discovery, there is only one rollup result for each scheduled discovery. The rollup discovery result contains the union of all devices that have been recently seen on the network by the scheduled discovery. The Discovery Result Name property indicates which scheduled discovery the ‘rollup’ result belongs to.
The date and time at which the most recent changes were made to the discovery result.
The date and time at which the discovery result was originally created.
