Executing a scan

Use the following types of scans to execute checks, a scan or a suite scan.

• Execute a point scan
  Execute all applicable checks against a single record, update set or an application by selecting Run Point Scan.
• Execute a test scan
  Execute a test scan to verify if the check works as expected. The test scan enables you to test a single check instead of a full scan by selecting a single check and selecting Test Check on the Check form.
• Execute a full scan
  Execute a scan for the entire instance by selecting Execute Full Scan. Implementing a full scan runs all the active checks present in your instance.
• Execute a suite scan
  Execute suites of available checks against a specific target to have targeted scan results by selecting Execute Suite Scan.
• Execute a reactive scan
  Execute a reactive scan to set up a scan that runs automatically on an execution tracker failure.
