You can identify network segments on which you want to perform discovery operations to locate servers and software. You assign each network segment a unique name that can then be scanned for servers. In addition, you can define a Management Profile that specifies the type of scan you want to perform and how frequently you want to perform it. This Management Profile can then be assigned to one or more network segments, letting you automate the discovery operations across your enterprise.
CA Configuration Automation begins managing your enterprise applications by establishing a comprehensive, up-to-date inventory of servers and software components across your organization's networks. You can discover components to get a complete, cross-platform inventory of applications at a granular level, including directories, files, registries, database tables, and configuration parameters. The basis for application-based discovery are Blueprints, which outline the basic structure of an application to enable the CA Configuration Automation Agent to find that application on a server. Blueprints are described in detail later in this section
