ManagementSoftwareSystem

The ManagementSoftwareSystem (MSS) class identifies what discovered the resources in the XML book. Resources can be discovered by multiple MSS classes. If an MSS is deleted, all resources discovered by that MSS, per unique MSSName, and which do not have another MSS, are deleted too. The MSS is also important for discovery REFRESH processing.
