Discovered Service node


A Discovered Service node stores information about an entry in a registry listing.

Discovered Service Lifecycle

The following section describes the scenarios in which a Discovered Service node is created or destroyed. DDD nodes are never updated.

Creation

Whenever BMC Discovery scans an IP address, a Discovery Access node is created. A Discovered Service node is created for each discovered service.

Removal

A Discovered Service node is removed when the Discovery Access node which it is associated with has been destroyed through the Aging process.
