Adding Domains to an Inventory
You can add all of the servers from an Active Directory (AD) domain as assets to an existing inventory in Inventory Manager.
Before You Begin

- If the Index Server cannot connect to the AD server, do the following:
- Install the Data Analysis Toolkit package on a client that can connect to the AD server. For information about the Data Analysis Toolkit package, see Preinstallation Checklist for the Data Analysis Toolkit.
- Set up a one-way direct network connection from the client to the Infrastructure client group. For information about setting up a one-way direct network connection, see Setting Up a One-Way Direct Connection.
