Once you have created your baseline set definition, you
create a baseline set. The baseline set provides the baseline version
number, baseline suffix, and baseline description for each of the
modules that you baseline to the set.
Before you begin
You must create the baseline set definition before you can
create a baseline set.
Add all the modules that you want to include
in the baseline set to the baseline set definition before you create
the baseline set. You cannot add modules to the baseline set definition
when a baseline set is open. You can add more modules when the set
is closed.
About this task
You can have one open baseline set associated with each baseline
set definition. If the baseline set definition has an open baseline
set, it must be closed before a new baseline set can be created.
Baselines
of modules that are included in the baseline set can be created in
the baseline set, or independently of the baseline set.
Procedure
- Select the project that contains the baseline set definition
that you want to use and right-click Properties.
- On the Baseline Set Definitions tab,
select the definition that you want to use for your baseline set and
then click Create Set.
- On the New Baseline Set window, select
a version for the baseline set and optionally type a suffix and a
description. If you type a suffix, each baseline that is
created in the baseline set includes the suffix. The suffix lets you
easily identify the baselines that belong to a baseline set.
- Click OK to create the baseline
set.
