![]() Answer: Question: I am using SA 10.1.11 and we are developing a product line architecture and documenting it with DoDAF. The problem we are encountering is when we are trying to develop the SV-1 diagrams. We have components (modeled as system elements) that are reused in several places (by system entities, as well as being used outside of a system entity). But with the restrictions the tool is placing on us (sys component has to be in a sys element, which has to be in a sys entity, which has to be in a sys node, we cannot model what we are building. How can we resolve this problem without resorting to using SA as an expensive Visio? Tech Support Response(partial): Are they using the SV-7 properties? If yes, they could use USRPROPS to move the SA-v properties from Sys elements and components to System Entities (which is where they are in the ABM version), and forget the system elements and components all together. In the ABM version, there is no different between system entities (usually called 'systems') and system components; it is one definition type. All the SV-7 properties are in the system entity. Since all 3 interface lines have system data exchanges, this seems like the easiest way to go. Question: What SV-7 properties are they talking about? How do I make those changes and what else will that mess up down the line if I do make those changes? Tech Support Response: | |
