Deploying an Enterprise Glossary and Library

An administrator can deploy a glossary and a library of enterprise reference models, resource files, and other documents, which will be pushed to and automatically updated for all users. By default, only administrators can edit the glossary or add models to or edit the library. You can provide access to other users using the standard repository permissions.

• Deploying an Enterprise Glossary
  An administrator can create an enterprise-wide glossary to provide autocompletion for object names, and enable model checks to ensure that only approved terms are used in object names. Once deployed, the glossary is automatically pushed to all users when they connect to the repository, and appears in the Glossary tab in the Browser.
• Deploying an Enterprise Library
  An administrator or other user with Write permission on the .Library folder can check models, resource files, and external files such as Word documents or PDFs into the library and have them pushed to repository users. Once one or more documents are added to the library, users connecting to the repository are invited to check them out into the library folder in their local workspace.
• Controlling Glossary and Library Write Permissions
  You control access to the Library folder in the same way as any repository folder by granting permissions. By default, all users can see the Library folder and have updates pushed to them as necessary, but only administrators have the right to modify the glossary and other library models.
