The discovered resources are displayed in the Discovered Manageable Systems
table. The Discovered Manageable Systems table displays only the manageable
resources that are discovered during the current discovery. System discovery
discovers only systems and other types of resources that can be managed by
SDMC. The discovered systems are listed on the Resources tab of the Welcome
page and the Navigate Resources page with an Access state of Unknown. The
Access state of the discovered system is Unknown. The Access changes to No
Access after a while and you can perform a Request Access State task on the
discovered system. You can also perform a Verify Connection task on the
discovered system when it is in the Unknown Access state, which changes the
Access state to OK if it was successful.
