# Configure Additional Discovery

You can view the software installations per Tenant, the number of installations for which credentials are defined for the users, the number of installations for which credentials are not defined for the users, and the number of failed and successful logins. You can also define credentials for the databases for which credentials are not defined.

To define credentials for the databases, perform the following steps:

1. Select **Asset > Configuration** > **Others** > **Additional Discovery**.
2. On the **FILTERS** pop-up page, select the **Tenant,** fill in the required details and click **SUBMIT**. For more information about the fields on the **FILTERS** pop-up page, see [Filters](/apex/docs/apex2-configure-additional-discovery#filters). The **ADDITIONAL DISCOVERY** page is displayed. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/62351b42-cfbd-43ad-8ce1-82b8f455337f/Images/Documentation/Additional Disc.png) Figure: ADDITIONAL DISCOVERY page

The **ORACLE DB CREDENTIALS** or **IBM DB CREDENTIALS** page is displayed according to the database you select.

4. Scroll the horizontal scroll bar to configure the fields under **Tenant**, **User Name**, **Password**, **Port**, **Proxy**, and **Discovery** columns. Click **SAVE** on the **ACTIONS** panel to save the configured credentials. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/62351b42-cfbd-43ad-8ce1-82b8f455337f/Images/Documentation/cred.png) Figure: ORACLE DB CREDENTIALS - Define Credentials ![](https://cdn.document360.io/62351b42-cfbd-43ad-8ce1-82b8f455337f/Images/Documentation/save(4).png) Figure: ORACLE DB CREDENTIALS - Define Proxy and Discovery
