IMPORTANT:
Discovery Jobs should not be retained as they will use system resources simply by existing (the scheduler will have to process them, even if they don't run).

This is why Discovery jobs and projects are only retained for 7 days.

Notes:

• The project and all associated jobs can be removed by clicking the Clear Settings button (outlined in purple) on a System which has a Discovery Project and Jobs, where all the project activity has stopped (either scan has completed, or user has manually stopped the scan).
• Clearing the Settings will not only remove the Project and Job records, but it will also reset the system to default settings and selections.

To clear the settings perform the following steps:

1. Click on the Clear Settings icon.

The system banner message of "Clearing Discover Scan settings... please wait." will appear as the scan settings are cleared.

Clearing the Settings will not only remove the Project and Job records, but it will also reset the system to default settings and selections (outlined in blue) and all previous Discovery jobs will be deleted (outlined in green).

2. Click on the Storage tile to expand downward to show the reset scan settings.

Below is an example of reset scan settings.

3. Click on the Save Settings icon.

This refreshes the System tile.  The File Share count message shows "563 with 561 selected" (outlined in blue) and the message of "examined 0 of 0 shares" (outlined in green).

This completes the overview of the Discovery - Clear Settings feature.
