Still trying to completely understand this:

I used ActiveScan to add my AD computer, and I used LsClient to add some machines that are not joined to the domain. Everything seems to be working fine and I can use LsTrigger with any of them to refresh my information.

My doubt is: does LS periodically rescans the computers? I see that each information section can be set with different refresh periods (in days), which makes me think that it does, but then there's these other section called "scheduled scans" (that is empty) and where you can add computers to be scanned at certain intervals.

That means that the information on LS will not be updated unless someone logs into the machine and the LsClient script executes, LsTrigger is manually executed or the machine is added to this scheduled scans list?

I got several servers that would like to be periodically scanned (specially for HD free space) and where there might not be any users logging in for long periods of time. What's the recommendation? Adding each one to the scheduled scan list manually, or is there some way to automate that?

Yes indeed.

ok, so machines under the AD will be regularly updated? I just need to worry about the ones outside the domain, right?

If you use active scanning the servers will be updated according to the waittimes, if you are not using active scanning you have to rely on lsclient to make the updates.

Active scanning scans your servers only once (at maximum) every 8 hours
