Running a Component Discovery Job

Before you can run a Compliance Job based on any of the Compliance Content component templates, you must have components against which the Compliance Job will run. To discover components that satisfy the signature of any specific Compliance Content component template, you must create and run a Component Discovery Job. Signatures in Compliance Content component templates are designed to discover all the components that run a specific operating system and sometimes a specific version of the operating system.

To begin the creation of a Component Discovery Job, right-click a specific Compliance Content component template, and select Discover.

For the full instructions, see Creating Component Discovery Jobs.

Note

Before executing a discovery operation for the CIS - Windows Server 2003 for Domain Controllers template, ensure that you have set the IS_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER target-level property to true for all the domain controller servers. For more information about this property, see Properties-for-review-in-the-Server-built-in-property-class.
