Create a partition definition and add the modules that
you want to include when you export the partition. Set the access
rights for the modules and select the attributes and views that you
want to include with each module that you add.
Before you begin
Make sure there are no active change proposals against objects
in any of the modules you plan to include in the partition definition.
If modules included in the partition definition have active change
proposals against them, the project is locked when the partition file
is imported, even if the modules are partitioned with read-only access.
Log
in to Rational® DOORS® as a project manager, database
manager, or custom user who has the power to partition data.
Procedure
- In the database explorer, select the project that you want
to create a partition definition for, and then click . You
must have create access to the project.
- Click the Partition Definitions tab,
and then click New.
- Type a name for the partition definition, and optionally
type a description, and then click OK.
- Select the modules that you want to add, and select the
access rights that you want to apply to them when they are imported.
The access rights option limits the access rights that anyone
importing the partition has to the modules.
For example, if
you select Read and Modify when
you add a module, users who import the partition cannot assign Create or Delete access.
If a user adds create or delete access to the imported modules, the
additional access rights are ignored. A user with Admin rights to
the project where the partition is imported can restrict the access
for particular users or groups. For example, they might let the one
group have read and modify access and give everyone else read access.
By
default, the attributes and views for each module that you add are
included with the same access rights that you gave to the module.
You can remove attributes and views from the partition definition,
and you can change the access rights for them.
