Customization of the containment model

The containment model can be customized. This customization is an advanced feature of the discovery process. To generate a custom containment model, you must either modify the existing stitchers, or write a new stitcher and configure the existing stitchers to run the new stitcher during the creation of the network topology.

Two example stitchers, ExampleContainment1.stch and ExampleContainment2.stch are supplied to help you modify the containment model. These stitchers can be executed by removing the comments before the ExecuteStitcher(); statements in the BuildContainment.stch stitcher.

These stitchers are stored in the following directory: $NCHOME/precision/disco/stitchers/.
