You must use the Operations Manager console to enable a proxy agent on each View Connection Server host or security server that you want to monitor with SCOM. The discovery script can discover a Windows server only if you enable the proxy agent for the server.

Procedure

1. In the Operations Manager console, go to Administration\Agent Managed, select the server, and click Properties.
2. On the Security tab, select the Allow this agent to act as a proxy and discover managed objects on other computers option.
3. Click OK to save your changes.
