Unload unit information should be stored in a file controlled by EWM

For increasing Rhapsody performance in big Rhapsody project, some units of the model were unloaded from the model so that they are persistently not loaded.

Locally this works fine, but this information is not propagated via EWM to the entire project team.

Since the information of unloading an unit is stored in *.rpwx file which is not under EWM, it is needed to include these settings (which units are to be loaded/unloaded) into a file controlled by EWM.

    Dear Suneel,


    Thank you for the feedback!

    I hope the solution will be implemented soon, because, as already mentioned, we have Rhapsody performance issues in big Rhapsody projects and IBM proposed workaround was to unload units.


    Best regards,

    Ramona

    Dear Ramona,

    The responsibility of *.rpwx is to store user specific for a concrete model(s). This is correct to not add *.rpwx file to EWM SCM control. To satisfy the customer needs, we need to develop an alternative place to store this information (in addition to *.rpwx) with an ability to choose whenever the changes from the current session should be shared with other or not.

    Hope this information helps.

    Regards,
    Suneel...
