Select a credential for a SQL Server instance or replica
To allow for full discovery of SQL Server assets, you must select the credential that you want to use for the instances or replicas. You can select from the existing server credentials or create a new credential.
Note:
The database and the availability group discovery begin after the credentials are validated. However, these assets may not appear in the web UI immediately. They appear after the discovery process completes. The date reflects when the credential was added or updated; it does not indicate if the credential is valid.
Review the recommendations and requirements for the type of credentials that you want to use for authentication.
