Will My Custom Searches Still Run?

The current CA DataMinder release includes essential changes to the iConsole to improve accessibility and usability. Unfortunately, some custom searches and reports may now cause JavaScript errors when a user runs these searches and reports.

As an alternative to fixing your custom searches and reports, we recommend that you review the standard searches and reports that ship with CA DataMinder. You may find that these searches and reports now meet your needs. The standard reports include various reports covering compliance, incidents and issues. It also contains six standard searches. For details, see the 'iConsole Standard Searches, Reports and Policies' chapter in the Platform Deployment Guide.

If replacing a custom search or report with a standard one is not viable, you must modify the XML search definition files for any affected search or report to fix the JavaScript errors. Details of the required compatibility changes are in the 'Changes to Javascript for Custom Reports and Searches' chapter in the iConsole Search Definition Reference Guide.

Note: A custom search or report is one produced by Orchestria or CA for a specific customer, or one developed by the customer themselves.
