Advanced rescan for CAST Imaging on Documentation - V2

Advanced rescan for CAST Imaging - add a new version and deliver source code

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Info

To perform this step, your AIP Console login must have the Application Owner role at a minimum.

Introduction

When you want to perform an Advanced rescan, this means that you would like to be able to control the required steps and make changes to the configuration that was used in the previous version analysis.

Info

Run analysis should be disabled

In an advanced rescan scenario, we do not want to run an analysis or publish to CAST Imaging as part of the new version creation process, therefore we must ensure that the Run analysis option is disabled when uploading the source code (this option can be enabled in a Standard rescan for CAST Imaging scenario where you simply want results quickly) - this option is explained fully below:

Advanced rescan for CAST Imaging - validate and accept the version

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Introduction

The AIP Super Operator is responsible for validating the source code delivered before accepting the version and proceeding with the configuration and execution of the analysis.

Info

avoid time consuming rework and delay due to incomplete delivery
improve accuracy of analysis
ensure consistency with analysis scope (application boundary)

Typically issues at this stage are due to missing files and other deficiencies that result in an incomplete source code delivery. Resolution includes either a request for the missing component or the decision (wherever possible) to proceed with a redefined analysis boundary that excludes the undelivered components.

Advanced rescan for CAST Imaging - review analysis configuration and execution

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The AIP Super Operator is responsible for reviewing the existing analysis configuration before running the analysis. In a rescan scenario, it may not be necessary to review the configuration, particularly if you are only delivering updated source code and no new technologies. If you need to review the configuration before running the analysis and publishing to CAST Imaging, please follow the steps listed in Advanced onboarding for CAST Imaging - review analysis configuration and execution:

Advanced rescan for CAST Imaging - analysis and publish to CAST Imaging

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Introduction

In an Advanced rescan scenario, you now have two choices depending on the source code that you delivered in the new version of your Application:

If the new Version contains only updated source code and no new technologies, and/or you made no significant changes to the analysis configuration settings, you can proceed with an analysis, and publish to CAST Imaging.
If the new Version contains new technologies, and/or you made changes to the analysis configuration settings, it is more prudent to run an analysis and validate these results before you publish the data in CAST Imaging.

Process

To run an analysis and publish a snapshot, move to the AIP Console screen if you are not already there:
