11 Adding New Local Domains

This chapter provides an overview on adding new local domains to an existing RDF global domain. New local domains can be added using the RPAS reconfigGlobalDomainPartitions utility. It is important to keep in mind that as new local domains are added, they must be added such that the RDF partitioning requirements continue to be met. This means each new local domain can only contain one position along the partition dimension.

When new local domains are added, the following additional scripts must be run, which are located in the /bin directory of $RPAS_HOME:

loadCurveParameters.ksh

This script is used to load the Curve data parameter measures including Profile Data Source, Default Source Profile, Default Profile Approval Method, Training Window Method, and Normal Value. This action is typically performed within the plug-ins at domain creation time, however, when you add a new local domain to an existing domain environment, the plug-ins are not run, and therefore this script performs that action manually.

Usage:

loadCurveParameters -d fullPathToDomain -s fullPathToNewSubdomain

loadRDFParameters.ksh

This script is used to load the RDF data parameter measures including Default Required Method, Default Source Level, Data Plan, Seasonal Profile, and Spreading Profile. This action is typically performed within the plug-ins at domain creation time, however, when you add a new local domain to an existing domain environment, the plug-ins are not run, and therefore this script performs that action manually.

Usage

loadRdfParameters -d fullPathToDomain -s fullPathToNewSubdomain
