Working with irreparable objects

The HCP system keeps track of the irreparable objects it finds. You can view a list of these objects for any given namespace in the Tenant Management Console. To display this list:

1.In the top-level menu in the Tenant Management Console, click on Namespaces.

2.In the list of namespaces, click on the name of the namespace you want.

3.In the row of tabs below the namespace name, click on Monitoring.

4.On the left side of the Monitoring panel, click on Irreparable Objects.

Roles: To view the Irreparable Objects panel, you need the monitor or administrator role. To acknowledge irreparable objects, you need the administrator role.

For each object it lists, the Irreparable Objects panel shows the full path to the object (starting after rest or data) and the date and time at which HCP discovered that the object was irreparable. If the namespace has ever had versioning enabled, the list also shows the version ID of each object.

If HCP subsequently repairs a listed object, the object is removed from the list.

You can acknowledge irreparable objects in the Irreparable Objects panel. Acknowledging an object leaves a checkmark in the object row. You can use this option to distinguish objects you’ve already seen from objects that have recently become irreparable.

You can delete irreparable objects from a namespace through normal delete operations as long as the objects are not under retention (or by using privileged delete if the objects are under retention). When you delete an object, HCP removes it from the list of irreparable objects.

Note: Acknowledging that an object is irreparable does not delete the object from the namespace.

By default, the objects in the Irreparable Objects panel are listed ten at a time in reverse chronological order by discovery time:

To view a different number of objects, select the number of objects you want in the Items per page field. The options are 10, 20, 50, and 100.

To page forward or backward, click on the next (  ) or back (  ) control, respectively.

To acknowledge one or more objects in the list of irreparable objects:

1.In the Irreparable Objects panel, individually select the objects you want to acknowledge, or click on the select all link to select all the unacknowledged objects on the current page.

To undo all your selections, click on the deselect all link.

2.Click on the Acknowledge Selected button.

Tip: To acknowledge all objects, whether selected or not, on all pages in a single operation, click on the Acknowledge All button.
