I created a new probe device and started cloning my sensor groups to it in order to reduce load on the core server. When I resume monitoring on those cloned groups, it begins auto-discovery, adding many sensors that I do not want. Is this behavior by design? And is there a way to prevent it?
Auto-Discovery on Cloned Group?

Hello Michael,
Edit: I just discussed this again, Remote Probes should only perform an automatic discovery if you choose Approve & Auto-Discover. Can you please check if there is an auto-discovery configured in the original group which you cloned? These settings would also count for the cloned group.
Kind regards,
