| | Generate Patch for New Base VRC (ttpmc1253s000)Use this session to generate Feature
Packs. You can start this session from the Patches (ttpmc1501m000) session. You can only generate one Feature Pack for a base
VRC. Base VRC A means in PMC to identify products in a unique way. Updates at
the distributor side are provided with the base VRC identifier. A base VRC can
contain the code of the physical VRC in which the related master product is
installed, for example, B61_a, but can also be a code not related to a physical
VRC, for example, 7.6_a_tt. At the recipient side, every update VRC is linked
to a base VRC identifier. The installation process checks if the base VRC
identifier of the update matches with the base VRC identifier of the update
VRC. If not, you cannot install the update in that update VRC. Actions Create Solutions for Export VRC If this check box is selected, solutions of the current base VRC are generated for this
Feature Pack. Software components of the given export VRC are linked to
the created Solutions. The user has the option to delete the current solutions of
this Feature Pack. The created solution codes have a prefix PS and a sequence number as a suffix. Note This action does not create obsolete
solutions. Export VRC By default, the export VRC of the base VRC is shown. You can specify a
different export VRC. This export VRC must contain all components that are
changed for the Feature Pack. This export VRC can contain all components,
including the unchanged components. In the latter case, you do not need to
select the Create Solutions for Previous VRCs check
box. Create Solutions for Previous VRCs If this check box is selected, solutions of the preceding base VRC will be created for
this Feature Pack. All software components that are not present in the export
VRC of the Feature Pack you want to generate are selected from the preceding
Feature Pack. The user has the option to delete the current solutions of
this Feature Pack. Note This action does not create obsolete
solutions. Note Generating subsequent Feature Packs with separating
software components that are changed and that are not changed, increases the
installation speed at the recipient side. PMC only installs the software components that are changed
after the previously installed Feature Pack. Export VRC By default, the derived-from VRC of the other given export VRC is shown. You can specify a different export
VRC. This export VRC must contain the preceding Feature Pack. Export Solutions If this check box is selected, the solutions are
exported. As a result, a dump with the components is stored on the file system
of the operating system. Validate Patch after Generation If this check box is selected, the generated Feature
Pack is validated. Options for Creating Solutions Max. Number of Components in Solution The maximum number of software components of the solutions in
a Feature Pack. Using this field, you can control the size of the
generated solutions and, with that, the size of the logical transactions when
the solution is installed at a recipient. For example, if 80 software components exist and the Max. Number of Components is 30, three
solutions are generated. The first and second solutions contain 30 components,
and the third solution contains 20 components. Language-Dependent Components Only If this check box is selected, only language-dependent
components are linked to the solution. As a result, these non-language-independent components
are excluded: - Scripts
- Objects
- Functions
- Non-enumerated domains
- Additional files
- Subscription templates
This option is particularly useful for solutions that
serve translation purposes. Selection for Creating Solutions | |
