CAUTION
If you close the Discovery Results window without adding devices, the results for devices not already in the
EPICenter database are lost. You must perform a discovery again to regenerate information on those devices.
After the Add has finished, the Discovery Results window is re-displayed. You can select more devices,
specify a different set of Inventory Device Options, and add those devices to the Inventory Manager.

You must have Administrator or Manager access to add devices to the EPICenter database, and create
Device Groups. If you have Monitor access only, you may not use this function.
