Viewing Asset Reconciliation ResultsYou use the Asset Reconciliation Results (SP) application in the Reconciliation module to view and manage results generated when the system executes a reconciliation task.
The application displays the following reconciliation results on the Asset Reconciliation Result tab:
Link rule results – link failures that occur when the system executes a reconciliation task but finds no link or finds multiple links between a top-level authorized asset and a deployed asset.
When the system processes a link rule in a reconciliation task and finds no link or finds multiple links between a top-level authorized asset and a deployed asset, the system creates a link failure record to display in the Asset Reconciliation Results (SP) application. Successful links are listed in the Asset Link Results (SP) application.
Comparison rule results – data that results when the system processes a comparison rule.
When you set up a reconciliation task in the Reconciliation Tasks (SP) application, you define the type of comparison results you want to display in the Asset Reconciliation Results (SP) application. You can select from the following options:
all results, both successful and failed matches
instances where the object and attribute of the authorized asset failed to match the deployed asset
instances where the object and attribute of the authorized asset successfully matched the deployed asset
Note: The system processes comparison rules only if a successful link is established between an authorized asset and a deployed asset.
If you want to view only link rule failures or comparison rule results, you can use the advanced feature or the Result Type field to select either link results or comparison results.
