If you want to use a new pattern, or if you already have a pattern that you were
using for top-down discovery, you can use the pattern for horizontal discovery with a few
modifications to the relevant classifier.
Warning: This procedure is only intended for custom classifier records
or those that do not include a pattern by default. However, if you have already
populated your CMDB with data using probes from this classifier and then switch
to use patterns, Discovery may create duplicate CIs. Therefore, only follow this
procedure if you have never run Discovery with probes for this classifier type.
Run the pattern in Debug mode to test it. When you are sure the pattern works, you can run
discovery by setting up a discovery schedule or running an on-demand discovery. See
Schedule a horizontal discovery for more information.
