Application Discovery 6.0 Software: User Guide

Screen refresh when clicking tabs or links:

appears to be empty when you first click to it, please wait a few seconds for the refresh to
complete.

Set general visibility
First and foremost, visibility of systems and applications depends on the permissions a user has
for each managed system and application. Users can see only those systems and applications in
Application Discovery tables that they already have permission to access or view.
That said, for those applications for which you have permission to view, you can further alter
application visibility by changing this configuration.
Use the “Application visibility” drop-down to affect visibility of applications across your network.
• Use Don't show hidden apps when you want to enable the hide functionality for
individual applications. This is the default setting.
• Use Show hidden apps when you want to quickly locate all discovered applications
without changing the hide settings for individual instances.
Your selection is applied automatically and immediately on all data tables in Application
Discovery.
Another way to do this is to use the drop-down selector the appears above tables that list
applications. The following figure shows these visibility selectors. The visibility setting selected
here is also applied to all application tables in Application Discovery screens.

Set color theme
Select one of four color choices by setting the “Color Theme” attribute. (See Figure 3-1 (page 17).)
Your selection is applied automatically and immediately to the Application Discovery user
interface.
Set number of table rows
To help you to view manageable chunks of data, you can select the maximum number of rows
to display within an Application Discovery table. Application Discovery apportions the data
into separate pages based on the number that you select.
Use the “Table bucket size” drop-down to select the number of rows that you want to appear in
each table per page. The default number of rows is set to 50, but you can select more or fewer
rows for each table page. (See Figure 3-1 (page 17).)
Your selection is applied automatically and immediately to all data tables in Application
Discovery.
