If you have exported a partition, and you cannot get a
return file from the remote database, you can recover the original
data. Recovering a partition removes the read-only locks associated
with the partition, so that users can edit the data.
Before you begin
Log in to Rational® DOORS® as a project manager, database
manager, or custom user who has the power to partition data.
About this task
If you recover a partition, edit locks are removed and synch
and return files from the remote database cannot be synchronized or
rejoined.
You cannot recover a partition if either the project or
any of the modules in the partition are open.
Note: In the database
explorer, the folder or project selected in the left pane is open
and has an open folder icon

or an open
project icon

. Its parent folder or project
is also open, and so are all the folders and projects above it in
the database tree, although they do not have open folder or open project
icons.
When a module is open, all the folders and projects above
it in the database tree are also open.
Procedure
- In the database explorer, select the project that contains
the exported partition you want to recover, and then click . You
must have modify access to the project.
- Click the tab.
- Select the partition you want to recover, and then click Recover. You must have admin and delete access to all the modules in
the partition.
- Click Confirm.
