Welcome to AllFusion Model Navigator r7.2.8, a member of the AllFusion Modeling Suite. This file contains operating system support, system requirements, installation considerations, known issues, documentation notes, and information about contacting CA Technical Support.
AllFusion Model Navigator (AllFusion MN) r7.2.8 requires that you have one of the following operating systems installed:
The following requirements must be met or exceeded for AllFusion MN r7.2.8 to install and run correctly:
This section contains general information you should know before using AllFusion MN.
AllFusion MN r7.2.8 is enabled for use with AllFusion Model Manager (AllFusion MM). Consult with your AllFusion MM administrator for a GUEST user permission to access models in AllFusion MM.
You must use a DBMS supported by AllFusion MM as your host server. AllFusion MM r7.2.8 supports the following host DBMS:
Using AllFusion MN you will not be able to connect to AllFusion MM on SQL Server 2005 unless you have the SQL Server 2000 client installed. AllFusion MN requires the use of DB-Library for connecting to SQL Server databases. SQL Server 2005 no longer distributes the DB-Library files, though DB-Library is supported for connecting to SQL Server 2005
In order to be able to connect to SQL Server 2005, the file NTWDBLIB.DLL needs to be installed on your workstation. If you have a SQL Server 2000 installation CD, the SQL Server 2000 client can be installed from the CD by executing sqlredis.exe located on in the \x86\Other folder. If you do not have a SQL Server 2000 installation CD, you will need to contact Microsoft support.
The context sensitive online help in AllFusion MN is identical to the online help in AllFusion Data Modeler (AllFusion ERwin DM) and AllFusion Process Modeler (AllFusion PM) respectively. This means that the online help may discuss capabilities such as saving a model that is not possible in the AllFusion MN product.
With the release of Windows Server® 2008 and Windows Vista®, the Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe) is no longer included as a component of the Windows operating system. Third-party programs that include .HLP files are no longer allowed to redistribute this Windows help program. However, you can download WinHlp32.exe from the Microsoft Download Center. For more information about this issue including download links for your operating system and how to implement this file, please refer to the following support document from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607.
The r7.2.x version of the AllFusion Modeling Suite uses Windows Help. If you install r7.2.x on a new PC running either Windows Server 2008 or Vista you may have problems opening the online help. Follow the download instructions to obtain a copy of WinHlp32.exe from Microsoft and place a copy of the file in the main folder where you installed the AllFusion Modeling Suite program files.

To view PDF files, you must download and install the Adobe Reader from the Adobe website if it is not already installed on your computer.
The release number on the title page of a document might not correspond to the current product release number; however, all documentation delivered with the product, regardless of release number on the title page, will support your use of the current product release. The release number changes only when a significant portion of a document changes to support a new or updated product release. If no substantive changes are made to a document, the release number does not change. For example, a document for r7 may still be valid for r7.1 or even r7.2. Documentation bookshelves always reflect the current product release number.
Occasionally, we must update documentation outside of a new or updated release. To indicate a minor change to the documentation that does not invalidate it for any releases that it supports, we update the edition number on the cover page. First editions do not have an edition number.
