Working with Depots
Within SPB you can search for and open depots. In the Depot region, the depot properties and
the depot structure are displayed. When a depot is opened in SPB, it is READ-ONLY.
Within SPB you can perform the following depot-related tasks:
• Visually compare two or more depots.
• Create a PSF from a depot.
• Validate a depot for packaging errors.
• Validate a depot against specified target machines for installation errors before the actual
installation.
Refer to Figure 5-6 to view the Depot region, which includes the depot properties and depot
structure displays.

Validating a Depot
To validate a depot perform the following:
1. From the main menu, select File->Open Depot.
2. Specify the hostname, path and name of the depot.
3. Review the validation messages for the depot.
Depot validation occurs in the exact same manner as a PSF. Upon opening the depot, it is
automatically validated.
