Client drive discovery

This feature requires a Discovery license and SNMP. This Discovery process seeks out hosts and devices in your environment. The process identifies all hosts in your environment, in particular those that are not currently stored in the reporting database and are therefore potentially not being backed up. This probe uses SNMP to probe the IP address range for drive utilization; therefore, SNMP must be enabled.
