Connect to Mart

If you are using CA ERwin Data Modeler Workgroup Edition, you connect to Mart to access models and perform administrative functions.

The way CA ERwin Data Modeler connects to the Mart has been redesigned now. In the previous versions, CA ERwin Data Modeler would connect to the Mart (database) server directly. Now, CA ERwin Data Modeler connects to the Mart through a web server. You can connect multiple instances of CA ERwin DM to the Mart from your computer.

At the time of logging on to Mart, you must provide the details about the web server and the Mart.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click Mdl Mgr Connection icon on the toolbar, or click File, Mart, Connection.

    The Connect to Mart dialog opens.

  2. Complete the following fields and then click Connect:
    Server Name

    Defines the name of the web server where you have installed the Mart.

    Port

    Specifies the port number to access the web server.

    Use IIS

    Specifies that you want to use the IIS web server to connect to Mart. This check box is enabled only if you have configured IIS. For more information about configuring IIS, see the Implementation Guide (Workgroup Edition).

    Application Name

    Defines the application name of the Mart that you want to connect to.

    Authentication

    Specifies the type of authentication you want to use.

    User Name

    Defines the name of the user.

    Password

    Defines the password of the user.

    You are connected to the Mart.

Note: After you connect to the Mart, if you click Connect to Model Manager again, a dialog opens seeking your permission to disconnect from the Mart.
