Validation Errors
The Validate Storage Areas dialog lists the number of errors the Content Consistency
Checker encountered. The Content Consistency Checker categorizes the file with the error type.
The Validation Reports dialog
allows you to view individual errors and error details.
The following topics describe each of the error types, along with possible resolutions:
- Missing File
- Lists all missing files. A file is marked missing due to one of two
conditions:
- The document is valid, but its content is missing. When this happens,
you can search for the document in the backup archives and replace it.
- The document was previously deleted along with its content, then
restored without its content. You can either delete the file or replace its content.
- Bad Size
- The file size is never wrong under
normal conditions. This error indicates that either the object store or the storage area contains the wrong size for the file. The incorrect size can result if, for example, the file in the storage area is either an old version or has been corrupted or overwritten by another file.
Examine the document content and restore the proper file if possible.
- Can't Validate
- Lists all files with unidentified errors that prevented validation.
These errors are rare.
- Unreachable Area
- Lists files the utility couldn't locate. This could occur when the files
are stored on a remote system and the network was down. After you re-establish
your network connection, run the Content Consistency Checker again to
see if these errors go away.
- Access Denied
- Lists files for which you did not have read permission. To run the
Content Consistency Checker, you must have a user login with read permissions
for all documents within the file stores you are checking. You should
meet this requirement if you are a member of one of the object store
administrative groups.
- Fixed Storage Area
- Lists files stored in a fixed storage area and their associated error status. The Error Status Legend describes the errors encountered, and lists ways you can correct them.
- Bad referral - the referral file associated with this content element has become corrupted. (Restore from backup to fix.)
- Missing referral - the referral data most likely has not been migrated. (Determine why migration failed.)
- Content error - the referral data associated with content element points to content that cannot be loaded. (Unknown fix.)
Unknown Errors
Lists all files with unknown errors that do not fall in any other category.
