Performing System Scan

To perform the system scan on a device or a group of devices

1. Hover over any device, click the gear icon that appears, and select Initiate Scan.

   Initiate scan command is sent to the device. Skip the remaining steps.

2. To perform the system scan on a group of devices, do one of the following:
   • Navigate to Assets > Devices, select the devices on which you want to perform a scan, click the gear icon , and then click Initiate Scan.

   • To perform system scan on all the devices associated with a tenant, navigate to Assets > Devices, click the gear icon , and then click Initiate Scan.

     

3. Select Action Approved and click Confirm in the below prompt.

   After you confirm, you cannot cancel scan for all the devices at once and should be done individually.

   

   After the system scan is initiated on a group of devices, the scan status of each of the devices is independent of each other. It is recommended that you disable disk-scan notifications before initiating group scan for a group with a large number of devices to avoid email spamming.
