Resource discovery agent configuration

The Default Resource Discovery Agent Policy determines the frequency of scanning files for their resource information. Files are inventoried separately at run time or via the file inventory policy. For performance optimization, only file hashes and locations are retrieved with file inventory. Resource discovery is optimized server-side to limit redundant retrieval of file resource information.

To access the Resource Discovery Agent Policy:

  • In the Arellia Security Manager select the Configuration tab
  • Go to Settings > Agents/Plug-ins > Arellia > Resource Discovery Agent Policy > Default Resource Discovery Agent Policy
    The following table describes the settings in the policy page.
