Running scanit

1. Type scanit at the command prompt to start the tool.

   Verify that you are in the directory where scanit was loaded.

   Note:
   scanit outputs a large amount of information that scrolls by quickly. To capture the output in a file for future reference, use the tee or script utilities to capture the output. (For example, scanit |tee file_name)

   The system responds with:

   Scan Script Builder applications on this system?
[y or n, default y]

2. Press Enter to accept the default.

   Accepting the default causes scanit to find all of the Script Builder program files to be scanned.

   The system displays the following prompt:

   Enter file name of source file list.
<h for help, or CR to continue>

3. Enter the name of the input file that specifies the files to be scanned. (See Setting up an input file for scanit.)

   As scanit reads the input file, it checks to see if the listed source files exist. It then captures the list of files to scan and displays the following prompt:

   You may also enter directories to search.
You will be reprompted for each directory

   Enter a directory name
<h for help, or CR to continue>

4. Enter the name of the directory where the scan should begin.

   The response to this prompt should be the root directory of the application path. You do not need to supply a directory if all of the applications to be scanned are specified in the input file.

   This prompt is repeated after the system searches for files in the given directory and sub directories. You can scan additional source trees if all applications are not in the same directory tree.

5. Enter more directories, or press Enter to continue.

   The system displays the following message:

   The following source files will be scanned
press return to continue

   [List of files found ��]

   Press return to begin scanning.

   scanit displays a summary of all the files to be scanned. This is the list of files discovered as a result of all the previous queries.

6. Press Enter.

   As it begins scanning, scanit displays a series of processing messages. When the scanning process is complete, it displays the following message.

   Application scanning now complete.
Results can be found in the directory /current_directory/results

7. Press Enter.

   The results of the scan are put into a results directory created from the current working directory where scanit is running.
