Environment

NetIQ Appmanager 7.0.x

Situation

How do I re-discover an object that was accidently deleted with the option to not re-discover?

'Prevent obejct from being re-discovered' option was accidentally selected, and now I need to discover that object in Appmanager 7.0.x

After re-running discovery, some objects fail to appear in Operator Console.

Resolution

To correct the issue, please follow listed below steps:

  1. Find the object in the deletedobject table of repository(QDB) then delete that row from the table.
  2. Please listed below listed below queries against QDB:

    Select * from deletedobject

  3. Find the object in the deletedobject table. Then delete that row from the table.

    delete from deletedobeject where servername =  '<servername>'

    Note :   A row for this object will not appear in the DiscoveryChecksum table until the next time the Discovery_Job is executed.

  4. Re-run discovery against target machine.  This will create an entry in the DisocveryChecksum table.
  5. Then run following SQL query to view the discoverychecksum table:

    select * from discoverychecksum

  6. Find the object in discoverychecksum table.  Then delete that row from that table by running following SQL query:

    delete from discoverychecksum where servername =  '<Servername>'

  7. Re-run discovery_xx  on the target server.
