Troubleshooting Mode can be used to assist you in identifying and resolving host configuration

discovery step where the errors occurred. If you receive an error message, enable
Troubleshooting Mode by selecting the Enable Troubleshooting Mode check box located
near the top of the page for each discovery step.
2. A red icon will display in the Problems column for each host for which a problem was

of configuration problems for that host.
3. You can also enter Troubleshooting Mode by clicking the link located in the error message for
one of the discovery steps. For example, if you are on discovery step 3, you can click the
