- Done-The topology has been created and is ready for you to retrieve.
 - Click the Review link to review the error details, if applicable.
- Click the Clear link in the Delete column to clear a selected topology.
The Last Snapshot column contains the date of the last time a topology was extracted from this host.
 
The Last Master column contains the date the last Master Topology was sent back to that host.
 
Reviewing Topology Error Details
 - Click the link in the Error Details column to launch a pop-up window that displays topology errors.
