When the resource manager has set up the environment to share resources, she must communicate the appropriate sharing policies to her team.
To allow your team to begin using the shared resources, you need to provide them with the following information:
- Repository login and password - to enable them to connect to the repository where you have stored the shared resources, the user profile and any model templates and categories for use in model creation.
- User profile - to customize the setup of their PowerDesigner environments for sharing resources. Existing users will check the user profile out into their Profiles folder, and then apply it. New PowerDesigner users will select the appropriate user profile when installing PowerDesigner. You can also deploy the user profile to new installs during silent installation (see Installation Guide).
- Model templates and categories - to check out to enforce the use of shared resources when creating new models.
