AWS discovery management - Adaptive Applications - BlueCat Gateway - 23.3.2

The AWS Management page displays scheduled discovery jobs in the Discovery Management table.

New scheduled discovery tasks appear in the table after you have created a scheduled task.

To start, stop, or manage a scheduled discovery job:

• Un the AWS tab, in the Discovery Management page, select the checkbox next to one or more of the jobs, click , then click one of the following:

  • Start: Start the selected scheduled discovery jobs.

    Note: Starting a scheduled discovery job also starts related discovery tasks.

  • Stop: Stop the selected scheduled discovery jobs.

    Note: Once you have started a scheduled discovery job, the status of the job will not change while the scheduled task is executing.

  • Terminate: Delete the selected discovery jobs.

    Note: Once you have started a scheduled discovery job, the job will only be terminated once the scheduled task has completed executing.

  • Update credential: Update the cloud credentials of the selected scheduled discovery jobs. The updated credentials are applied on the next run of the scheduled task.

  • Update Discovery Options: Update the configured resource objects that are discovered and visible from the selected scheduled discovery jobs. The updated options are applied on the next run of the scheduled task.

  • Update Interval Time: Update the interval time between discovery jobs. The interval indicates the amount of time, in seconds, that Cloud Discovery & Visibility waits after the previous discovery job finishes before starting the next discovery job.

    Note: The updated interval is applied after the next run of the scheduled task.

  • Export Schedule Jobs: Export the scheduled discovery jobs to a file. When exporting the scheduled discovery jobs, you can define a key within the Secret Key field that will be used to encrypt the file.

    For more information, refer to Exporting scheduled discovery jobs.

  • Import Schedule Jobs: Import scheduled discovery jobs from a file. If you encrypted the file, enter the key used to encrypt the file within the Secret Key field to decrypt the file.

    For more details, see Importing scheduled discovery jobs.

  Tip: Click to refresh the selected scheduled discovery jobs.

After a discovery job is configured and run, the Discovery Management table displays an entry with the status of the discovery job. In some scenarios, two VPCs can be created in two regions with the same name and CIDR. If two discovery jobs are executed in consecutive order with the same Address Manager configuration name, and the discovery jobs are discovering the VPCs in those two regions, CDV flags the status of the discovery job as "Completed with issues" with an exclamation mark. These jobs indicate that overlapping VPCs have been dropped.

For additional information about an overlapping discovery job, click its status information. CDV will display a JSON file with information about the dropped VPCs.
