Hi @shabbir5 ,
Yes, you can configure Discovery schedules to use only specific accounts. In order to do this, you can set up a Credential Alias that includes only the desired accounts, and then assign that alias to the schedule. This will ensure that only the specified accounts are used during the Discovery process.
Technical accounts are used during the Discovery process to provide access to remote devices and systems. These accounts are typically non-human accounts that are specifically created for this purpose, and they may have privileged access to the systems being discovered. Using technical accounts in this way helps to improve security by reducing the need for users to share their personal credentials.
Credential aliases are used to manage sets of credentials that can be used by Discovery schedules, MID Servers, or other applications. A credential alias consists of a name and a set of credentials, which may include usernames, passwords, and other authentication information. By using aliases, you can manage your credentials centrally and avoid storing them in multiple locations.
Yes, you can use a credential alias in a Discovery schedule. To do this, you can simply select the desired alias from the "Credential Alias" field in the Discovery Schedule form. This will ensure that the accounts associated with the alias are used during the Discovery process.
