SCAP Compliance results - Rule Results tab

The Rule Results tab shows the compliance status of all rules included in an SCAP Compliance operation. Select one or more of those rules, and the Targets list at right shows the compliance status of that rule for each of the operation's targets.

An icon next to each rule in the Rules list shows the status of all targets for that rule. Similarly, icons in the Targets list at right show the compliance status of each target.

The Rule Results tab also provides an option for exporting SCAP compliance results.

To search for rules or targetse

In the Search Rules box, enter a text string of any length. The Rules list shows all rules with names that include the text string. If you leave the box blank, the page shows all rules. Search for non-compliant targets in a similar way using the Search Targets box.

To filter rules or targets

Take any of the following steps:

• Click one of the wedges representing a compliance status in the pie chart at top and rule results are automatically filtered for that status. For example, if you click Fail in the pie chart, the Rules list shows rules for which targets have failed.
• Select a compliance status in the list at the top of the Rules list. The Rules list shows only rules matching that status. 
• Select a compliance status in the list at the top of the Targets list. The Targets list shows only targets matching that status.

To obtain information about a rule

In the Rules list, hover your cursor over a rule. A pop-up message describes the rule.

SCAP compliance results are exported to a human-readable, HTML format.

1. Select the Actions icon  at the top of the Rule Results list and then select Export SCAP compliance results.
   A dialog box opens.
2. For Export File Name, assign a path and a name to the file being exported. The path must be entered using the Network Shell style. The file ending must be .xml.
