  2. Select the Volumes tile.

    The Volumes dashboard appears.

  3. Select Discover systems.

  4. In the list, select all systems whose volumes you want to discover.

  5. Select Discover.

  6. In NetApp Backup and Recovery, select Inventory.

    The discovery process begins. You can see the status and result of discovery in the Job Monitor.
