Checking Out a Project

If RMS is used in your environment, then you must log into RMS and check out a project from RMS before you can work with the project resources in the Decision Manager UI.

If you want to generate a deployable EAR file, ensure that you select all or at least all required artifacts. The EAR file may not build or deploy correctly if required artifacts are missing.

Depending on your role or roles, you may not have permission to check out all resources or to do all of the documented tasks.

For instructions on updating a project you already checked out, see Updating (Synchronizing) a Project.

Procedure

  1. Ensure no local projects are selected. The RMS checkout options are not available if a local project is selected.
  2. From the RMS menu, select Checkout.

    The Checkout dialog displays.

  3. To select a different RMS server, enter its URL or select the correct URL from the Management Server URL drop-down list.

    Ask an administrator for the RMS server URL if you do not know it and it is not in the list already.

  4. In the Projects List section, click the project of your choice.

    The list displays RMS projects stored in the base location for this server. The project name displays in the Project Name box.

  5. Click Get Artifacts.

    A list of the artifacts (resources) from that project appear below the Project Name box. The artifacts include all the resources from the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio project, such as rules, rule functions, virtual rule functions, decision tables, concepts, events, domain models, shared resources, channels, global variables, and so on.

    If you are checking out an artifact for the first time, the ChangeType for that artifact is ADD. For subsequent check outs, the ChangeType is MODIFY.

  6. Select the artifacts you want to work on locally and click OK.

    The Checkout dialog displays the list of artifacts you have selected for checking out.

  7. Click Finish.

    The selected artifacts appear in BusinessEvents Studio Explorer.
