Supress "Item is inherited - no processing done" Message(SkipNotDoneMsg)

By default, when a permissions action includes SharePoint objects with inherited permissions, the following line displays in the ControlPoint Task Audit for each of these objects:

Security is inherited - no processing done

ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however, suppress this message for objects with inherited permissions by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Setting Supress "Item is inherited -no processing done" Message from True to False.

Config Setting SkipNotDoneMsg

Maximum Line Items in Real-time Reports (REPCAP)

By default, the maximum number of line items that can display in ControlPoint search or analysis results that is run interactively (that is, using the "Run Now" option) is 10000. This limit is set to provide administrators with predictable performance when generating an analysis and to keep the result set manageable.

If the limit is exceeded, the following message displays:

This report has more rows than the current row limit of xxxx, only first xxxx rows are displayed. You can raise the limit. It is specified in either REPCAP or SCHEDULEREPCAP.

ControlPoint Application Administrators can set this limit either higher or lower by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Setting Maximum Line Items in Real-time Reports.

Web Config RECAP

"Use Cached Data" Default Value (CACHEREP)

When you are given the option of using cached or real-time data for data analysis and reporting, the ControlPoint default value is Use cached data. (See also Specifying Parameters for Your Analysis.)

ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however, change the default option to real-time by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Setting CACHEDREP from True to False.

Config Setting CACHED

Abort Report Processing on Error (ABORTREPORTONERROR)

As of version 5.2.345.0, when a ControlPoint analysis includes lists and/or list items and errors are encountered, by default analysis processing will complete, with problematic list(s) and/or item(s) flagged with the text ***Error*** in the results.

ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however, choose to have analysis processing be aborted and no results display by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Configuration Setting Abort Report Processing on Error from false to true.

Config Setting ABORTREPORTONERROR

NOTE: Prior to version 5.2.345.0 the default value is true.
