PowerProtect Data Manager 19.15 Microsoft Exchange Server User Guide

Discover a Microsoft Exchange Server application host

After you register an application host with PowerProtect Data Manager, the host appears in the Asset Sources window. Then you can select the host and perform discovery. For application hosts, discovery is required if you want to schedule a backup. Assets must also be discovered for the centralized copy management of self-service backups.

1. Select Infrastructure > Asset Sources.
   The Asset Sources window appears.
2. Select the agent host tab.
3. After you select the host, click Discover.

   The Initiate Discovery dialog appears with an option to immediately start a full discovery of the assets on the host.

   NOTE:On the agent host tab, you can click Discover at any time if any additions or other changes to your Asset Sources have taken place outside of the PowerProtect Data Manager environment. Asset discovery is also initiated by default after registration of the host to PowerProtect Data Manager and at hourly intervals. Discovery time is based on networking bandwidth. Each time you initiate a discovery process, the resources that are discovered and those that are handling the discovery impact the system performance.
