To analyze global resource
:
  1. In the Policy Manager, choose [
    Manage
    ] >
    Manage Global Resources
     from the Main Menu.
    The Manage Global Resources dialog appears.
  2. Choose one or more resource to analyze (hold down the [

    ].
    The Analyze Global Resources dialog appears.

    Description
    Resources
    The Resources table at the top lists the resources that were selected before the [Analyze] button was used and any dependencies:
    • System ID
      : The URI for the selected resource(s), as entered in Add a New Global Resource.
    • Details
      : The target namespace (for XML Schemas) or the public identifier of the resource (for DTDs).
    • Type
      : The resource is either a XML Schema or DTD.
    • Status
      : The status for the resource.
    [View]
    Choose this to display the content of the selected resource.
    [Validate]
    Choose this to validate all the displayed resources. The number of validation failures is displayed next to "Validation Failures" below the list of resources. The text "(not validated yet)" indicates that validation has not yet been performed.
    For resources of type "DTD", validation will occur only if the resource is used.
    [Reset]
    Choose this to reset the system identifier and/or contents of the selected resource back to its default values. If resetting both is possible, you will be prompted to choose either or both to reset. If resetting neither is possible, then this button will not be activated.
    The non-default contents and /or the system identifier will be reflected in the 'Status' for the resource. For example, the "Status" for resources that have been reset might look like this:
    OK (System ID and content modified from default value)
    Failed (System ID modified from default value)
    OK (content modified from default value)
    Resource Details
    This section displays details about the resource:
    • System ID
      : Displays the URI for the resource.
    • Status
      : Whether the resource has passed validation.
    • Status Detail
      : The target namespace (for XML Schemas) or the public identifier of the resource (for DTDs). If the system identifier for a resource can be reset, then the default system identifier is also displayed in the Status Detail for the resource.
    Dependencies
    This section shows the dependencies for the resource. You can choose to show all dependencies, only direct dependencies, or only transitive dependencies (shown in italicized text). Note: Only dependencies within the global resources are displayed. Schemas that are configured within policies will be not be included.
    • Uses
      : The resource(s) that the selected resource uses.
    • Used by
      : The resource(s) in which the selected resource is used.
    If a resource has a Status of "Fail", the Dependencies section does not display the other dependencies that the resource may have.
  5. Click [
    Close
    ] when done.
