are added or removed, use the
Data Collector to scan for domains.

To allow directory users to log in to Unisphere Central, add directory service users and/or user groups to Data Collector user groups.
Add Directory Groups to a Data Collector User Group
Add a directory group to a Data Collector user group to allow all users in the directory group to access Unisphere Central. Access can be
granted to groups that belong to the domain to which the Data Collector is joined, domains in the same forest, and domains that belong to
forests for which two-way forest trusts are congured. Directory service groups are not supported for one-way trust domains.
