Manage Maps

After customizing the pictorial view of your data, you can save the view as a map. Saving a map helps you or others load the view.

Example:

You have customized the pictorial view of your data while working on an LPAR. Your colleagues are working one another LPAR. You want to share the customizations with your colleagues. To do so, you can save the customized pictorial-view as a public map.

To save a map, click the Perspectives and Maps icon, click Save Map, fill out the appropriate fields, and click Save. Unlike the perspectives, you can save a map with any number of root nodes.

To load a map, click the Perspectives and Maps icon, click Load Map, click the + sign on the map, and select Apply. The owners of the maps can edit, duplicate, and delete their entries.

Note: The maps that you have saved are stored under the Chorus\Topology Maps section of the Discipline drop-down list in the Investigator tree view. After selecting a map, follow the actions available in the Actions pane to continue.

When you modify a public map, your edits are saved to a copy. The original map stays unchanged.
