The Schedules overview section enables you to make data-driven decisions through powerful visualizations.
Hinweis:You can configure the time scale reflected in the displayed counts on the Settings page.Select the More options icon (
), then select Refresh to refresh the data for each visualization in this section. Tabelle : 1. Data visualizations Report title Type Description Active schedules Indicator Displays the total number of IP-based and Cloud Discovery schedules that are configured and enabled to run on a recurring basis. Select the number to view all Discovery schedules.
Schedules completed without anomalies Indicator Displays the number of IP-based and Cloud Discovery schedules that were completed without anomalies in a certain time period. Wichtig:This count only displays when anomaly detection is turned on. If anomaly detection is turned off, select Turn on to be redirected to the Settings page.X day schedule trends Line chart Displays Discovery schedule trends over a certain time period. Schedules that failed to run are marked as critical anomalies. Schedules that have a low CI discovery rate are marked as major anomalies. Schedules that have a long run time or have a high error count are marked as minor anomalies. The timeline displays events that occurred during the schedule. Use the magnifying glass icon (
) or scroll to zoom in on the timeline and hover over the indicator to expose event details. You can toggle event indicators on and off using the Show legend feature.Select View discovery status to view the status of all scheduled IP-based and Cloud discoveries.
Select View anomalies to view anomalous schedules.
Schedules by location Map Displays Discovery schedules by location. Select an area of the map to view Discovery schedules in the region selected.
Schedules with anomalies Bar chart Displays Discovery schedules with anomalies detected in a certain time period, indicating the schedules that failed, had a low CI discovery rate, had increased error counts, or had long run times. Select the number or View all to view the anomalous schedules.
Wichtig:This count only displays when anomaly detection is turned on. For more information, see Discovery Admin Workspace Settings.Errors by category Donut chart Displays the count of all Discovery errors by category. Select a category to add or remove it from the chart. Select View details to view a list of all errors from all discoveries.
- IP-based discovery tab
-
Provides a centralized view for monitoring and managing IP‑based Discovery schedules and coverage.
Depending on your IPv6 IP Address Management (IPAM) integration, items that require attention are displayed, such as IPs that aren't currently covered by Discovery schedules or schedules that were auto created from IPAM that require activation. Select Review missing coverage to access the page where you can view coverage analysis results and create Discovery schedules from IP Ranges. If you haven't enabled auto-created Discovery schedules via IPAM, select Review in Settings to access the Discovery Admin Workspace Settings page. When auto‑created schedules are enabled, a notification displays the number of Discovery schedules that require activation. Select View and activate schedules to open the Auto‑created schedules page. For details on activating these schedules, see Activate auto-created Discovery schedules. For more information about IPv6 IPAM integration, see IPAM Discovery integration.
IP resources are available via Additional information. Select the Total IP address link to access a analysis.Hinweis:Select the All IP range sets to access the Discovery Range Sets [discovery_range] table.You must have the CMDB Coverage application v1.0.0 installed to access this link.Select a Discovery schedule from the table to view extensive details and update schedule field parameters. For more information, see Discovery Admin Workspace schedule details.
- Cloud discovery tab
-
Gives you quick access to all of your cloud-based Discovery schedules.
Select a Discovery schedule from the table to view extensive details and update schedule field parameters. For more information, see Discovery Admin Workspace schedule details.
- Discovery status tab
-
Shows the status of scheduled discoveries. You can select a Discovery status number to view detailed information. For more details, see Discovery Admin Workspace status details.

Discovery Admin Workspace status details
The Discovery Status Details page offers a summary of a discovery initiated from a schedule, detailing the devices identified, any errors encountered, and any anomalies found.
If the status is Active or Starting, selecting the Refresh icon (
) updates the Started and Completed values in the header in real time.
Key features
- Details
-
The Details tab includes visualizations that provide detailed information about the Discovery status. Depending on whether the status pertains to a discovery that is IP-based or cloud-based, the visualizations provide a detailed overview of the schedule’s performance and current status. They highlight key metrics such as the number of devices and IPs discovered, cloud resources identified, and any errors encountered during the run.
Select the More options icon (

Details tab data visualizations Report title Discovery Type Description Errors Both IP and cloud-based Displays the number of errors that were detected during the run. Total Devices IP-based Displays the number of devices that were discovered during the run. New Devices Displays the number of new devices that were discovered during the run. Total IPs Displays the number of IP addresses that were discovered during the run. Duplicate IPs Displays the number of duplicate IP addresses that were discovered during the run. Total Cloud Resources Cloud-based Displays the number of cloud resources that were discovered during the run. Selecting an indicator reveals related information in a table. By default, detected errors display, sorted by priority. Each error card includes details such as the Error Code, Operating System, and, when available, a link to supporting documentation. If a task has been created, task-related information is shown on the card, along with the option to edit the task. For errors without an associated task, you can choose to either create a task or ignore the error. Selecting the Total Errors hyperlink opens the Error Stats Page, where you can view instructions and take action based on the error.
For IP-based schedules, the Total Devices, New Devices, and Duplicate IPs tables provide additional details such as the Source, Classification probe, and Scan status. Selecting the Source hyperlink opens a page where you can view more information about the device, apply tags, and access the Discovery Log and ECC Queue details. Selecting the Total IPs indicator opens the Shazzam Summary table, where you can access details such as IP addresses, IP Range, and Network Range. To learn more about a specific item, simply select its hyperlink in the table.
For cloud-based schedules, selecting the Total Cloud Resources indicator reveals a bar chart that categorizes each discovered cloud resource by its CI type. Select the More options icon (
), to refresh or save the chart. - Debugging
