Validating a storage area detects inconsistencies between
the metadata in the object store database and the files in the associated
storage areas.
Procedure
To validate a storage area:
- Start Content Consistency Checker. See Start Content
Consistency Checker for instructions.
- Set the Content Consistency Checker options for validation
ranges and maximum errors to be logged. See Set Content Consistency
Checker options for more information.
- Select one or more storage areas that you want to validate
and click .
- In the Validate Storage Areas window,
click Start to start the validation process.
- Optional: From the Validate Storage
Areas window while the validation is in progress, you
can choose from the following options:
- You can monitor the validation process while it is in progress.
- You can click Stop to stop the current
validation process. If you selected the Enable Resume option
before you started the validation, you can resume the process later
where processing left off. If the option was not selected before
you started the validation and you interrupt the process, processing
starts from the beginning the next time you start a validation.

the validation reports. See View validation reports for
