What about Active Directory System Discovery?
By default, this Active Directory System Discovery method discovers basic information about the computer, including the following attributes :
 
* Computer name
* Operating system and version
* Active Directory container name
* IP address
* Active Directory site
* Time stamp of last logon
 
To successfully create a DDR for a computer, Active Directory System Discovery must be able to identify the computer account and then successfully resolve the computer name to an IP address.
 
In the Active Directory System Discovery Properties dialog box, on the Active Directory Attributes tab, you can view the full list of default object attributes that it discovers. You can also configure the method to discover additional (extended) attributes.
 
Actions for Active Directory System Discovery are recorded in the file adsysdis.log in the <InstallationPath>\LOGS folder on the site server.
