Managing Model Profiles
Following are suggestions for ways you can use model profiles to manage your model.
- As already mentioned, you can create a default model profile suitable for your environment by editing the model profile in the null model or by editing the model profile associated with a particular model.
- To change the model profile defaults for new models, edit the default model profile in the null model. Note that this will be overwritten when you receive a new version of CA 2E.
- To change the model profile defaults for new users of a model, edit the default model profile in the model library.
- You can tailor model profile settings for particular developers or groups of developers using the Edit Model Profile (YEDTMDLPRF) command. Some examples are:
- Assign developers to different session lists based on the project to which they are assigned.
- Restrict certain developers to view only mode.
- Turn component change processing off for all designers (*DSNR) to avoid interactive overhead.
- Set a different generation and creation environment for each ongoing project.
- You can use the Retrieve Model Profile Details (YRTVMDLPRF) command to retrieve model profile settings for a specified user profile. As with other change control facilities commands, you can use this within control language programs to build utilities and model object lists to help manage your model.
