A vDiscovery job retrieves information about virtual entities in cloud environments that are managed through a cloud management platform, (CMP) such as GCP. The current vDiscovery feature supports tenants, networks, and compute VMs only. It does not support data that is retrieved from load balancer networks, load balancer VMs, Kubernetes platform VMs, application gateways, service VMs, SQL VMs, or any other VMs that are created by cloud services, such as Kubernetes service or analytics service, where the IPAM is handled by the respective orchestration engines of the cloud provider.

| bgColor | #FFFAE6 | If the vDiscovery job retrieves unsupported data from GCP, then it impacts the performance of the vDiscovery processNoteYou can use the values that appear by default or extend the values as per your requirements. Using less than the recommended resources can cause a reduction in performance. |
You must first select a member to run the vDiscovery job. To ensure that the job is executed properly, verify the connection between the discovering member and the discovered endpoint. Infoblox vDiscovery for GCP supports the resource manager model. You can discover tenants, subnets, VPCs, and workload VMs through Infoblox vDiscovery for GCP. When you configure vDiscovery jobs, you can enable the Infoblox NIOS appliance to automatically create DNS records for discovered IP addresses of VM instances that are served by the NIOS appliance. You can configure the appliance to add DNS records for specific DNS views associated with the network view defined for public and private IP addresses of VM instances served by the appliance. For information on how to perform GCP vDiscovery, see the Selecting the Endpoint Server section in the Configuring vDiscovery Jobs topic in Infoblox NIOS documentation.
