Triggering application discovery

Depending on the value of the application check cycle for a computer, PATROL may take a few moments to discover all the applications on a given computer.

To force the agent to discover all the applications on a given computer,

  1. Access the PATROL Agent application menu as described in Accessing-KM-Commands-and-InfoBoxes.
  2. Choose Trigger Agent Activities > Perform Application Discovery from the PATROL Agent application menu. PATROL displays the discovered applications in the icon window.
