      Problem Definition

      Some organizations may required to deploy Discovery Agents in many hosts and copy configuration files over Discovery Agents.
      In Discovery tool, there is an "Agent File-Transfer List" setting to copy files over Discovery Agents.

      However, there is not a feature to remove unwanted patterns on the Discovery Agents.
      Deleting manually all the unwanted pattern across all Agents instances is not a solution.

      Suggested Solution

      There should be an option to delete them remotely or the Discovery agent should have some configuration like Discovery (Discovery.cfg) to modify what patterns are executed

            Christian Schneider added a comment -

            I would very much appreciate this functionality. We used to have our client data imported via the SCCM-integration on our Server version of Insight.

            As the SCCM-integration is not available for Assets in the cloud, I am looking for alternative ways to import clients into Assets.

            Two options:

            • [1] SCCM-Export -> Enterprise Service Bus -> Assets Rest-API
            • [2] Discovery Agent combined with Discovery Collector

             

            As Option [1] would be very work-intensive, I have decided to go for option [2]. To manage about 1'000 Discovery Agents on 1'000 laptops, I need to be able to add, change and delete patterns on the laptops.
