Report Description

Missing Network Elements
|
Displays any invalid or missing network elements that were found in the restored deployment group.
This validation procedure checks for the coordination of policies and managed devices. If the validation procedure detects network elements that are missing from the current device group, they will be displayed in this report.
The assignments of policies to these network elements in the restored deployment group will be automatically removed.
|
Invalid Assignments

Displays any invalid assignments that were found in the restored deployment group. It displays all the network elements that no longer conform to the constraints of their policy group.
The validation procedure checks for assigned network elements that no longer match the constraints of their policy groups. These network elements will be removed from the assignment.
|
Reusable Components Violations
|
Displays any reusable components violations that were found in the restored policy group.
This validation procedure checks for the coordination of policies and library components (IP aliases, application aliases and policy group templates).
If the validation process detects some library components in the restored version that are different than the ones in the current libraries, this will be displayed in the report.
The validation process overrides the current library components with the original ones and adds them locally to the policy group. In this case, the dynamic link to the library components will no longer exist.
|
Constraints Violations
|
Displays any invalid policy groups that were found in the restored deployment group.
This check validates the policy group device constraints against the predefined constraints limitations. These limitations may change from time to time causing some of the policy group constraints to be invalid.
Invalid policy groups will be removed along with their assignments.
