Description

This page outlines the warning received while trying to view the Analysis Unit Content.
The warning received is as follows  "<analysis unit name> needs to be analyzed before taking the snapshot"
This warning is received when you try to view the content of a Analysis Unit which has not been analyzed.

Even if the Analysis Unit has not been analyzed, this is also an inappropriate message.
Since you are just trying to view the content and not running a snapshot, so the message should not say "needs to be analyzed before taking a snapshot".
This message can be misleading for end users.
