Creating a New Analytics Repository File


The first step in creating a repository is creating a repository file.

NOTE:  In offline editing, remember to save your repository from time to time. You can save a repository in offline mode even though the business models may be inconsistent.

To create a new repository file

  1. Select File > New from the Administration Tool menu or click the New button in the toolbar.
  2. Type a name for the repository.

    A RPD file extension will automatically be added if you do not explicitly specify it. The default location for all repositories is in the Repository subdirectory, located in the Siebel Analytics Server software installation folder.

    The new repository is empty. The remaining steps in the repository setup process, as outlined in Table 5, tell you how to populate it.

    NOTE:  When populating the repository, make sure that no repository objects in any layer are named Administrator. This name is reserved for the Siebel Analytics Server Administrator user ID.

After Creating a Repository File

The first step in setting up a repository is creating a repository file. The second step is creating the Physical layer in the Administration Tool. For more information, see Creating and Administering the Physical Layer in a Repository.
