Querying Isolated Objects
The Query isolated objects function is available with the MEGA Supervisor technical module.
Isolated objects are objects unconnected to other objects, and are therefore almost certainly not used.
Querying isolated objects
1. From MEGA Administration, connect to the environment concerned.
2. Expand the Repositories folder.
3. Right-click a repository and select Object Management > Query Isolated Objects.
Alternatively, in the
MEGA workspace, select
Tools > Manage > Query Isolated Objects.
The Query Isolated Objects dialog box appears.
4. Click Apply to run the query.
The system scans the repository, and lists the Objects not connected to higher level objects in the hierarchy, preceded by their type.
Objects not preceded by an asterisk are not linked to any other object and can be deleted.
Objects preceded by an asterisk are connected only to lower objects in the hierarchy. An example is an org-unit that sends messages but does not appear in any diagram.
Querying for isolated objects involves searching the entire repository and for this reason the operation may take some time.
The Explore button allows you to explore links around the selected object.
The Delete button allows you to delete selected objects.
It is normal to find projects, processes, applications and keywords in the list. Do not delete these types of object.
In the "Extended metamodel" configuration, objects of type _deskitem are listed. These are user workspaces: Do not delete them.
