Discover Database (discover_db)

Configuration Type
Database

Parameter Type
Configurable

Default [Range]
Enable [Disable, Enable]

This parameter is used to prevent information about a database from being returned to a client when a discovery request is received at the server.

The default for this parameter is that discovery is enabled for this database.

By changing this parameter value to disable, it is possible to hide databases with sensitive data from the discovery process. This can be done in addition to other database security controls on the database.
