# Restrict Nutanix v4 event discovery to specific Prism Centrals

Create a MID Server property to target specific Prism Central instances for Nutanix v4 event discovery.

## Before you begin

-   Verify that you have at least version 1.31.0 of Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns.
-   Verify that Nutanix Components discovery has run and that the Nutanix Prism Central \[cmdb\_ci\_nutanix\_prism\_central\] table is populated.
-   Verify that the MID Servers for Nutanix event discovery have **All** or **Nutanix** capability.

Role required: discovery\_admin.

## About this task

By default, Nutanix v4 event discovery runs against all Prism Central instances in the Nutanix Prism Central \[cmdb\_ci\_nutanix\_prism\_central\] table, using any MID Server with the **All** or **Nutanix** capability. Starting with Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns version 1.31.0, you can create a MID Server property to target specific Prism Central instances. You can create multiple properties for different Prism Central and MID Server combinations.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **MID Server** > **Properties**.

2.  Select **New**.

3.  Fill in the form.

<table id="table_nutanix_events_v4_property_form"><thead><tr><th>
