Checking the Current Status of a Scan Server

Use the following procedure to check on the status of the Scan Servers defined on your Code Insight system.

To check the current status of a Scan Server, do the following:

1. On the Code Insight Dashboard, click administration. The Administration page appears with a list of side tabs. (You can also access this page by clicking the icon in the upper right corner of the Code Insight web page to open the Code Insight main menu. From this menu, select ADMINISTRATION.)

2. Select the Scan Servers tab. The tab displays a grid listing the Scan Servers that have been added. (For a description of the grid columns identifying properties for each Scan Server entry, refer to the table in the previous section, Adding or Editing Scan Servers.) The color-code status for each Scan Server is displayed next to its alias name in the Alias column.

   

The following describes color code for Scan Server status:

Status Code	Description
	The green icon indicates that the Scan Server is “enabled” for scanning and is currently running (turned on). Scans are run in queue order.
	The red icon indicates that the Scan Server is “enabled” for scanning but is currently not running (that is, it is turned off). Any attempts to associate a project with the Scan Server or upload a codebase to the server generates an error. Additionally, any attempt to initiate a scan will result in the scan’s being queued. However, once the server is active, the scan will start based on queue order. (Users can click the Past Scans link on the project Summary page to view details about the scheduled scan.)
	Scan Server is “disabled” (that is, cannot be used for scanning). Whether the server is running or not has no effect on this status. If an enabled server is needed for scans on a project assigned to a disabled Scan Server, a new project must be created.
