Applications are only available when their respective plugins are activated.

The default MID Server is used when applications fail to find a suitable MID Server that matches configured criteria during auto-select. The default MID Server for the ALL application is used if the default MID Server for the specific application is not available. Some applications also offer a property to set the default MID Server.

중요사항:

If you configure a MID Server for ALL IP ranges (type Include) and also create an IP range of type: Exclude for the same MID Server, the system ignores the excluded IP range for that MID Server.

The default MID Server does not need to meet any criteria (application, IP range, behavior, or capability) to be used. Specifying a default MID Server is optional, and you can use a MID Server as the default for more than one application.

Application	Additional notes
Discovery	Discovery attempts to use the default MID Server when the Discovery schedule specifies Auto-Select MID Server and Discovery cannot find any MID Servers with the correct application and IP range.
Orchestration	Orchestration attempts to use the default MID Server when it cannot find any MID Servers with the capabilities that you define in the Orchestration activity. You can also specify a default MID Server. The value in that property automatically synchronizes with the default MID Server you select in the Orchestration application.
Alert aggregation and RCA	Not applicable. The MID Server is selected if it has the RCA capability. Route to right MID by domain.
Service Mapping	If there are no MID Servers with matching application, capability, or IP range, Service Mapping uses the default MID Server.
Event Management	You can specify a default MID Server for Event Management using the mid.server.connector_default system property. Event Management does not use the default MID Server in the application record.
Cloud Management	N/A

You can specify the ALL application for a MID Server, which means that the MID Server is allowed to work with any of the applications that require MID Servers, such as Discovery, Event Management, Service Mapping, and so on. But you might not want all applications to be included in the definition of ALL. For example, you might want to exclude Service Mapping from the ALL definition if you already have a dedicated MID Server to work with Service Mapping.
