Comparing Versions

To determine differences between versions of configuration objects, use the compare function.

About this task

To compare versions of configuration objects on a server:

Procedure

  1. Go to the respective configuration object from the left navigation pane.
  2. Select the Server and Version from the drop down lists.
  3. Click overflow menu icon (Overflow menu icon displays a list of actions) > Version above the grid.
  4. From the displayed results on the Manage Versions page, select the versions you want to compare and click Compare.
    The window shows the objects in each version. Parameters that differ between versions are highlighted in red. An entire row is highlighted in red for objects that differ due to a change in their parameters (add, delete, or update). Objects with no counterpart to compare with are also shown in red.
    Note: This step is not necessary if you are comparing initialization parameter versions.
