Using the product, you can enable multi-tenancy.

To enable multi-tenancy

   setup

   on

   Enables the multi-tenancy feature as fully operational. You can select from the following values:

   • strict—(Default) CA SDM fails a checkin to a tenant-required table when tenant is null and the product cannot default it from an SREL to a tenanted table.
   • warn—CA SDM writes an error to the log but allows the checkin to proceed when a tenant-required object with a null tenant is created or updated.
   • allow—CA SDM writes a warning to the log but allows the checkin to proceed when a tenant-required object with a null tenant is created or updated.
