Discovery jobs
Inbox scans create one or more Discover jobs, depending on the selected Asset link or made Asset link settings. Information on the status of the ten latest Discovery jobs are shown on the Discovery jobs page. Also, additional information are provided, and it allows you to perform actions on the Discovery jobs.
Discovery job information
Each job has its essential information displayed at a glance. The job status, the name of the Asset Gateway, the Asset Gateway version, the count of discovered assets and the configured Asset link for the Discovery job are displayed. The date and time, when the job was created, are displayed as well. Scans with multiple Asset links lead to more than one discovery job, so that all of them need to be selected to e.g. stop the entire scan.
