Viewing a Work Area's Installation History

To see a record of each previous installation of the Work Area, do the following:

  1. From the Actions drop-down, select Installation History.

  2. Click Go. The system displays the Work Area Install History screen.

The Install History screen includes the following information:

Installation Attempt

The system assigns a number x.y to each installation attempt, where x is the version number and y is installation attempt on that version represented by the row. For example, if the current Work Area version number is 3 and there have been 5 installation attempts on version 3, then the most recent installation attempt number is 3.5, and the previous one is 3.4.

Install Status

The system displays the final status of the installation attempt. If the installation was successful, the status is Installed. If the installation was not successful, the system displays the status corresponding to the last installation phase completed successfully. See Work Area Installation Phases and Statuses.

Install Mode

The system displays the mode used to run the installation: Full, Partial, or Upgrade. See Installation Modes for further information.

Force to Regenerate Scripts

If set to Yes, the installation process regenerated installation scripts even for objects that had not changed since the previous successful installation. If set to No, the installation process generated installation scripts only for objects that had changed since the last successful installation.

Installed By

The username of the person who initiated the installation attempt.

Installation Date

The date on which the installation was completed.
