The Automation Error Messages list displays the errors that occurred during the execution of Discovery automation scripts. From this list, you can view the details of each error, such as the script name, the error message, the device, and the time. You can also perform actions on the errors, such as retrying the script, ignoring the error, or creating an incident. To do so, you can use the options on the right navigation pane, which are categorized as follows1:

SELECT ALL: This option allows you to select all the errors in the list.

SELECT ONE: This option allows you to select one error in the list by clicking on the checkbox next to it.

ACTION ON SELECTED: This option allows you to perform an action on the selected errors, such as Retry, Ignore, or Create Incident. You can also choose to perform the action on all the errors in the list by selecting the All option from the drop-down menu.

ACTION ON ALL: This option allows you to perform an action on all the errors in the list, regardless of the selection. You can choose from the same actions as the ACTION ON SELECTED option.

 To allow a MID Server to access servers using WinRM, the following configurations are required:

MID Servers need to be added to the WinRM Group policy on the Servers: This enables the servers to accept WinRM connections from the MID Servers and grant them the necessary permissions to execute commands and scripts1.

MID Server Parameters Add WinRM: This enables the MID Server to use WinRM as a protocol for Discovery and Orchestration and specify the WinRM port, authentication method, and encryption settings2.

The default thread count for a MID Server is 25. This means that the MID Server can run up to 25 worker threads simultaneously to execute the jobs assigned to it by the ServiceNow instance. The worker threads are divided into different thread pools based on the priority of the jobs. The MID Server can also adjust the thread count dynamically based on the system resources and the workload. The thread count can be configured by changing the MID Server parameters in the ServiceNow instance12. References = 1: MID Server Max Threads - Worker Groups - Priority and Queues - ServiceNow 2: Product Documentation | ServiceNow

 A Behavior is a set of rules that determines which MID Servers launch which types of probes during a Discovery1. It can be assigned to a Discovery IP Range, which is a range of IP addresses that Discovery scans for CIs2. By using the Behavior drop-down menu on a Discovery IP Range, one can control how Discovery behaves for each IP address in that range3. The other options are not related to using a Behavior for discovery. The MID Server selection method on a Discovery Schedule is a way to specify which MID Servers are eligible to run Discovery for a given schedule4. The Behavior drop-down menu on a Discovery Status is a way to filter the Discovery Status records by the Behavior used. The Behavior checkbox on a CI is a way to indicate whether the CI was discovered using a Behavior or not.
