The CA 2E CM Solution
> Quick Tour Focus on CA 2E oriented development
> Promotion Architecture
> Administration and Security
Tour – Check OutImplicit While Editing in YEDTMDL
Tour – Check OutExplicit from Edit Model Lists
Tour – Check OutThe Workbench
Tour – Check Out
> Implicit – from any “edit” attempt via YEDTMDL
> Explicit – from YEDTMDLLST
> Check out info exposed in CA 2E CM & CA 2E panels
> Advanced features: Fast path “prompt once” for multiple check outs
Versioning-enabled for functions and messages
> Concurrent development of functions (and messages)
Tour – Initiate PromotionPromote By Model List
Tour – Initiate PromotionCustomize the Promotion
Tour – Initiate PromotionConfirm the promotion
Tour – Promotion
> Promote by Model Object List
> 3GL objects automatically derived Enforces promotion by model object
> Separate batch phases
> Single & multiple models supported Optional QA models
Promotion Phase – Move
> Places source/objects into target libraries
> Optionally updates Message Files, Conditions, and run—time objects
> Releases model objects locks On move to production
> Archives up to 99 versions of functions
> Archive Recovery Rollback of versionable objects
Creates a new list with model objects on previous change
Remote Deployment
> Unlimited remote sites
> No remote sign on required
> Deployment Dashboard shows all systems in one view
> Deploys everything but model Including Condition values, messages
> TCP/IP (or SNA) based
> Relies on MKS Implementer Receiver technology
Advanced CA 2E object support
> Fully compatible with CA 2E 8.1 SPx Compatible backwards to CA 2E 6.2
> User Source and User programs Dependent and Independent modes
> UIM or text help
> Supports the latest CA 2E features ILE (RPG and COBOL)
SQL databases, RPG and COBOL
SQLILE (RPG and COBOL)
Administration/Security
> Controls editing development models
> Prevents changes to Models outside of CA 2E CM
> Enforces Model Object type capabilities Enforces roles, such as DBAs or contractors
For each of the eight model object types
Per user & model
View, edit, and no rights
> Control access to Model Objects Lists
> Control access to concurrent development for functions/messages
Beyond CA 2E Models – MKS Integrity
