Validate Button

The Validate button compares the polices for the selected Discovery team(s) and allows you to view any conflicting settings or search locations. Conflicting settings and search locations in the polices assigned to team members can cause search failures. This button is only enabled when a Discovery Team or Teams are selected.

Validate Selected Teams(s)

Select a Discovery team or teams and then click the Validate Selected Teams(s) button. A validation grid opens in the Discovery teams view.

Click the Refresh button to hide the validation grid and display the Discovery Teams View.

The Validation results grid shows any conflicting policy settings or search locations.

The Validation results grid consists of the following columns:

Field Description
Team The name of the Discovery Team.
Conflicting Policy The policy type and the name of the conflicting policy.
Affected Team Members The team members assigned to the conflicting policy.
Team Policy The name of the Scheduled Task policy assigned to the Discovery Team.
Location The Search Location (e.g. custom folder, remote machine, SharePoint Site, etc.) or the name of the policy setting that contains the conflict.
Data The Search Location value (e.g. custom folder, database connection string, etc.) from the conflicting policy or the setting value from both the conflicting policy and team policy.

A search location (this applies to all policy search locations except file hashes) is considered to be in conflict if the team member's system policy has an entry that the Discovery team's scheduled task policy does not.

A policy setting is considered to be in conflict if the value in the system policy is “user set” and:

  1. The same setting in the team policy is not set (for example, has the default value), or
  2. The same setting in the team policy has a “user set” value different from the system policy’s “user set” value AND the system policy does not have the “Initialization\Configuration\AllowConfigurationFileToOverrideSystemSetting” setting set to “Allow override”.
