Repository Management with Nexus
11.1. Analyzing a Repository with Repository Health Check

To perform a Repository Health Check about the artifacts in your Nexus instance, you have to click the Analyze button in the Quality column of the list of Repositories displayed in Figure 11.1, “The Repositories List with Different Quality Status Indicators and Result Counts”. In order to be able to do that you have to be logged in as an administrator. Once the data gathering analysis is completed the Quality column will display the number of security and license issues found.

Hovering your mouse pointer over that value will display the Repository Health Check summary data in a pop up window. A sample window is displayed in Figure 11.2, “A Result Summary Window for a Repository Health Check”.

At the bottom of the pop up window you find a button to disable the analysis for this repository as well as the button View Detailed Report to access the detailed report. It will show up in another tab in the main area of the Nexus user interface.
