What must be done during the initial setup if discovery was previously installed?

During the initial setup after the previous installation of discovery software, migrating software installs is essential to ensure that the existing software inventory is properly integrated into the new system. This process allows organizations to carry over the data regarding installed software, license compliance status, and usage metrics from the previous system to the new environment, maintaining continuity and minimizing disruptions in operations.

By migrating software installs, organizations can leverage historical data for better decision-making regarding software licensing and asset management. This is critical for maintaining accurate records for compliance audits and financial planning.

The other options do not directly contribute to preserving the integrity of the software asset management process during the initial setup. For instance, running a Disaster Recovery Plan typically pertains to recovering from failures, not initial setups. Installing a New Inventory Tool would typically involve starting fresh without beneficial data continuity, and resetting all systems would likely erase valuable software and usage data, undermining the purpose of the installation. Thus, the focus on migrating software installs stands out as the correct approach during this phase.
