Cloning a Model

You can pick any published model and clone the contents to a new draft in the same objective or clone the content to the current parent draft. The cloned draft can be edited and used further. The Audit Trail window also captures the cloning information.

To clone the model:

  1. Open a Published Model in Pipeline Designer.

    Figure 8-68 Published Model in Pipeline Designer


    This image displays the Published Model in Pipeline Designer.

  2. Click More Actions icon and select Clone to new draft or Overwrite existing draft option.

    You can perform the following functions on Pipeline Canvas window:

    • Clear Execution Results: Clears the execution details.
    • Invalidate session: Deletes the previous session details.
    • Execute: Allows you to execute the pipeline.
    • Save Now: Allows saving the pipeline.
    • Open Notebook in session: Allows you to open the notebook in canvas. This is displayed after the pipeline is executed.
    • Execute Notebook in another session: Allows you to provide different data for the same notebook execution. This option is only displayed when execution is in progress.
    • Stop Execution: Allows you to stop the execution which is in progress. This option is only displayed when execution is in progress.

      Whenever user executes a batch, a user session is created. This execution time can be less or more for any execution. Sometime, user doesn’t want to wait for execution to complete and navigate away from the Pipeline Canvas page.

      For example, if user does not want to execute all the paragraphs and want to execute only Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 2. Paragraph 1 takes 15 minutes time for execution and Paragraph 2 takes 10 minutes for execution. Paragraph 2 execution also wants to use the execution of Paragraph 1. In this case, user can navigate away from the page. A confirmation message is displayed to close the current session. Here, this session time is configurable.

      This image displays the Confirmation message.

    • If user clicks Yes, then execution thread will be closed for this given session time.
    • If user clicks No, then execution thread will be valid for this given kill time and run in the background.

    You can configure these values in Application.xml file. For more information, see the MMG Installation Guide.
