You can add or remove links to core universes and perform other management tasks for core universes linked to the active universe from the Business Layer Editor.
You can do the following management tasks for linked universes from the Core Business Layer tab of the Business Layer Editor:
- Add core
- Select a core universe in the CMS to be linked to the active universe.
- Synchronize core
Synchronize all core universe structures linked in the active local universe.
- Remove core
Remove a link to a selected core universe.
- Include core
Integrate the core universe components into the local universe. The link to the core universe is removed, so the core business layers and data foundation are now fully functional components of the active universe.
You can synchronize the core universe structure and components in a linked universe with the core universe in the repository. Synchronizing ensures that a linked universe consistently contains the most recent version of its core universes. Synchronizing core universe components updates core objects, removes deleted core objects, and adds new core objects.
Note
Perform a Synchronize Core action before you publish a new version of your current universe.To Synchronize a Core Universe
In the Business Layer Editor, click theCore Business Layer tab.
Click a core universe name in the list.
Click the Synchronize core button.
A message box appears when the synchronization has finished. Depending on the differences between the repository and current universe version of the core universe, components may have been modified, added, or deleted in the updated core business layer or data foundation.
