Therefore, it is important for you to perform setup tasks and for the developers to perform check-out procedures carefully, paying close attention to the messages that appear. To prepare for multiuser development, you need to perform the following tasks:
Setting Up the Shared Network DirectoryThe administrator needs to identify or create a shared network directory and copy the appropriate repository files to that location as described in the following list:
Creating Projects for a Multiuser Development EnvironmentAfter the Administrator copies a repository to the shared network directory, the Administrator needs to create distinct projects in the source repository in the shared network directory. A project is a defined subset of metadata in the source repository. When creating a project, the administrator selects a Presentation Catalog or a subset of logical fact tables related to the selected Presentation Catalog, and the Administration Tool automatically adds any Business Model and Physical layer objects that are related. An object can be part of multiple projects. After you create projects, they become part of the metadata and are available to multiple developers who need to perform development tasks on the same source repository. When defined this way, projects become a consistent repository after a developer checks out the projects and saves them as a new repository file. NOTE: Only one person at a time can create projects in a source repository. To create a project for a multiuser development environment
After you create all projects, you can notify developers that the multiuser development environment is ready to use. |
