Understanding and Creating Directives › Verification Directives

Verification Directives

To initiate verification-related value directives in the Component Blueprint, select the Indicators, Verification Directives element and click Add Directive. View and edit existing verification directives from the Verification Directive tree that appears when you select a verification directive element.

The fields that are displayed vary by the Directive Type that you select.

Examples:

• The Oracle 8i Database (UNIX) v8.* Component Blueprint defines a Remote Execution verification directive that uses SQL Plus to retrieve the version and verifies that the discovered component is version 8.
• The Apache HTTP Server (UNIX) v1.3.* Component Blueprint defines a Constant verification directive that retrieves the version information and verifies that the discovered component is version 1.3.*.

  Note: The example uses a wildcard (*) when specifying the regular expression on which to match. Discovery finds all versions that start with 1.3.
