licensed in VCM. If you have already discovered and licensed these servers during your initial Discovery,

proceed directly to "Performing SMS Server Collections" on page 228.

To determine whether your SMS Servers have been discovered and licensed, and are therefore available

for SMS collections, follow these steps.

Scan the data grid to locate your SMS Servers.

If all SMS Servers that you want to manage are listed, and therefore licensed in VCM, proceed to

step.
