unable to edit components in client system

[ross_goodman]

Hi,

My basis guy has just finished deploying the PI that we have developed to a client system. We now wish to perform any further maintenance / development (for instance add a field in a message type) directly in the clients PI system.

When I go to the component it is only available in display mode and I am unable to switch to edit mode.

Why might this happen and how can I alter this to allow delopment ofr all compnents in this system?

Also another small question.

In OUR system I see the heading "Interface Mappings" whilst in the client system these mappings appear under a heading "Operation Mappings". WHY the difference as I believed the two PI systems were the same release etc? I was not around at the inception of this product so there a re a few puzzles for me

Cheers,

Ross

Check your User id has the roles to perform this action, better to address this issue with basis team they will help you.

till PI 7.O we call interfaces mapping , PI 7.1 onwards name got changed to Operation mapping.

message interface-->service interface.

Thanks guys

I have been doing some reading though and what I see has me puzzled so I am going to check with you for clarification. I hope you don't mind.

In my own system I have made a change to a message type, say I have added a single field NAME2

in the client system I have the old message type without NAME2.

To get the new message type into the client PI system I have to export the message type design object and import that at the client PI ystem. Is that correct?

My confusion comes as the previous PI person left a deployement guide which does not mention this at all, but talks about CIM archive exports and imports which I believe handle SLD components not integration repository objects.

Ninad,

You said ealrier to double click on the software component version, where exactly would I be to double click on that? I double clicked on the software component version that was displayed in the message mapping header section but nothing happened when I did that.

Expand your SWCV name ( ABC OF XYZ.COM) then under that one node will appear , double click on that and then you will see the details on the right pane of your design window

there in you will find the tab

Double click on software component version and check mark on tab " objects are modifiable "

this way you will be able to edit the objects

Interface mappings are in PI 7.0 and operation mappings are in PI 7.1

Regards

Ninad
