Managing object revisions
This section contains information about object revision management. Open Single Management Platform allows you to track object modification. Every time you save changes made to an object, a revision is created. Each revision has a number.
Application objects that support revision management include:
- Administration Servers
- Policies
- Tasks
- Administration groups
- User accounts
- Installation packages
You can perform the following actions on object revisions:
- Compare a selected revision to the current one
- Compare selected revisions
- Compare an object to a selected revision of another object of the same type
- View a selected revision
- Roll back changes made to an object to a selected revision
- Save revisions as a .txt file
In the properties window of any object that supports revision management, the Revision history section displays a list of object revisions with the following details:
- Object revision number
- Date and time the object was modified
- Name of the user who modified the object
- Action performed on the object
- Description of the revision related to the change made to the object settings
By default, the object revision description is blank. To add a description to a revision, select the relevant revision and click the Description button. In the Object revision description window, enter some text for the revision description.
