Configuring the Discovered Machines Import
Tool
You can configure various options in the Discovered Machines Import Tool application.
IMPORTANT If you change the options in the DMIT application, you must follow all of the
recommendations listed here. Do not change any setting that is not mentioned in this document.
All of the settings for the DMIT application are configured in the dmit.exe.config XML file. To view the
various sections in this file, use an XML editor of your choice.
Changing the Log File Name
1. Open the dmit.exe.config file.
2. Locate the section named: <log4net>
3. Locate the sub-section named: <appender…>
4. Locate the parameter defined as:
<paramname="File"value="dmi.log" />
5. Replace the current value, dmi.log, with your new path and filename. For example: c:\newdmi.log
6. Restart the application to apply the changes to the settings.
NOTE When a connection to the database has been established, the DMIT application logs information to
the VCM database. If a connection has not been established, the application writes information to a local
log file.
Changing the Log Level
1. Open the dmit.exe.config file.
2. Locate the section named: <root>
