To ensure that the discrepancies
identified are resolved,
use the Revalidate action to revalidate the software instance
or use the action
to regenerate the report. Invoking either action causes z/OSMF to rerun all
of the validation checks for the software instance.
Procedure
- If the Software Instance Validation report
you created
for the software instance is still available, complete the following
steps:
- If the maintenance reports are
hidden from view, use
the Show Hidden Maintenance Reports action
to re-display them.
- Bring focus to the
Software Instance Validation report
that you created for the software instance.
- In the Errors table, click Revalidate or
select Revalidate from the Actions menu. To revalidate the software instance, z/OSMF might need to
collect information from different systems. In which case, you might
be prompted for additional information such as your login credentials
for the system or the HTTP proxy information. If prompted, provide
the requested information.
A progress
indicator is displayed that informs you that z/OSMF is processing
the request and might take several minutes to complete. For more details
about the indicator, see help topic About progress indicators.
If
the software instance was revalidated, the Date validated field
is updated. For more details about the items displayed in the report,
see help topic About the Software Instance Validation report.
- If the Software Instance Validation report you created
for the software instance no longer exists, recreate the report. To
do so, complete the steps provided in help topic Creating the Software Instance Validation report.
