Out Of Sync Status
The Out of Sync icon indicates that content in the newly opened Solution Pack differs from a
version that was previously installed by another Solution Pack (either a different Solution Pack or a
previous version of the same Solution Pack). The name, definition, or description of the content
might be different.
NOTE: The Solution Manager only compares content from different Solution Packs (or different
versions of the same Solution Pack) for installed content. It does not compare content that has not
yet been installed. It also does not compare Solution Pack content to content in the target system;
manual changes to content in the Sentinel Control Manager are not reflected in Solution Manager.
When you right-click a Solution Pack, you can select Expand Only Out of Sync Nodes. This option
expands all Controls that are out of sync and collapses all Controls that are either uninstalled or in
sync. This makes it easy to find the out of sync content in a large Solution Pack.
To resolve out of sync content:
1 Select the out of sync content (not the Control or Category) in the Solution Manager.
2 Right-click and select Out of sync content details. A message displays with information about
which Solution Pack is the source of the out of sync content.
3 Compare the description of content item in the two Solution Packs to determine which version
you want to keep.
4 Uninstall the out of sync Control from all Solution Packs. (Ideally you should resolve the out of
sync issue before installing the new Solution Pack.)
5 Reinstall the Control with the content you want to keep.
6 Implement and test as required.
15.3.3 Installing Content from Solution Packs
To use the content of a Solution Pack in the Sentinel Control Center, you must install the Solution
Pack or selected Controls in a Sentinel System (also known as the "target" Sentinel system).
When you install either a Solution Pack or an individual Control, all of the child nodes are installed.
To install the contents of a Solution Pack:
1 Go to Tools > Solution Packs.
2 Double-click a Solution Pack to open Solution Manager. Alternatively you can click Open with
Solution Manager icon. The Solution Manager window displays.
3 Select a Solution Pack or a Control which you want to install. Click Install. Alternatively, right-
click on a Solution Pack or Control and select Install. The Install Control Wizard displays. If
you select a Solution Pack, all the controls in that Solution Pack displays. If you select an
individual Control then that control is displayed in the Install Control Wizard window.
