Detecting Conflicts
ConflictManager Reference
If the package does not work, return to ConflictManager and redo the conflict
resolution in any of the following ways.
To revert changes for just
one or a few files
To redo the conflict
resolutions with rules
To revert all previous
resolutions without
applying a new rule set
After you redo the conflict resolution, repeat the steps to export and test the
package.
ConflictManager compares the resources each package installs. When it finds resources
that conflict, it populates the Software Manager database with conflict information. The
database contains the combined results of all the detection processes you have
performed. Repeating the detection process for a package overwrites previous conflict
information for that package only.
The settings in Setup menu > Conflict Settings > Types determine which conflicts are
detected.
If Detect conflicts during package import is marked in Conflict Settings, then
conflict detection runs automatically when a new package is imported into the Software
Manager database. When conflict detection runs during import, it checks for conflicts
between the imported package and all other packages; it does not re-detect conflicts
between all packages.
To detect conflicts
1.
(Enterprise Management Server only.) If multiple databases are open, select a
database in the Applications/Packages pane.
2.
Select Conflicts menu > Detect.
The Detect Conflicts dialog box appears.
3.
Mark one of the following:
Conflict Detection and Resolution
Select Conflicts menu > Resolve.
In the Resolve wizard, select one or more files
and click Revert to undo your previous conflict
resolutions for those files.
Try other ways to resolve the conflicts.
Select Conflicts menu > Resolve with Rules.
Select a different rule set. This reverts all the
previous conflict resolutions for that package
and then resolves them using the different rule
set.
Select Conflicts menu > Resolve with Rules.
Select the Restore original conflicts rule set.
This reverts all previous conflict resolutions but
does not resolve the conflicts.
Resolve conflicts with a different rule set or
with the Resolve wizard.
