1 Introduction
The complete MX chassis discovery feature introduced in OpenManage Essentials version 2.5 is enabled with
the help of the new MX Chassis Discovery - All Components filter in the Guided Discovery wizard. With the
help of a complete MX chassis discovery feature, you can discover all the blade servers installed in the same
chassis by only discovering the MX7000 chassis by using its IP address.

complete MX chassis discovery feature:
 Complete chassis discovery feature is supported only in OpenManage Essentials version 2.5 or later.
 To access the MX Chassis Discovery - All Components filter, the discovery range must be added
by using Guided Discovery wizard.
Note—From OpenManage Essentials version 2.1 and later versions, Guided Wizard is the default discovery
wizard configuration setting. You can change this setting by clicking Settings Discovery Settings.
