The
Error out on first detected error in validation
check box is selected by default. The firewall stops performing the checks for the move or clone action when it finds the first error, and displays just this error. For example, if an error occurs when the
Destination
vsys doesn’t have an object that the policy rule you are moving references, the firewall will display the error and stop any further validation. When you move or clone multiple items at once, selecting this check box will allow you to find one error at a time and troubleshoot it. If you clear the check box, the firewall collects and displays a list of errors. If there are any errors in validation, the object is not moved or cloned until you fix all the errors.
Click
OK
to start the error validation. If the firewall displays errors, fix them and retry the move or clone operation. If the firewall doesn’t find errors, the object is moved or cloned successfully. After the operation finishes, click
Commit
.
