Reviewing Scan Results

You can access scan results a number of different ways:

  • You can view the results for a scan you just performed by clicking the View results link from within the Operations Monitor.
  • You can view results from Machine View by selecting View > Machines.
  • You can view the results for prior scans by selecting Results in the drop-down at the top of the navigation pane and then selecting the desired scan.

My Machine results dialog

This view is called Scan View and provides detailed information about a particular scan.

  1. In the top-right pane, select the machine you just scanned.
  2. In the middle pane you can view a variety of information, including:
    • The number of product levels that are missing
    • The number of patches that are missing
    • The number of patches that are installed
    • The products (applications) that were scanned on the machine
    • The number of patches that are missing for each of the scanned products
  3. In the bottom pane you can view detailed information about any patch you select in the middle pane.
